TYPE: SOP State
TITLE: Edit Operation

The Edit operation allows fast, interactive editing of geometry.

This operation is best for quick, repeated edits, since only one Edit node will
be created in the network.  This differs from most other operations, like
Transform, that create new nodes for each new operation.

Use of the Edit operation will result in cleaner, more compact networks, in
addition to improved overall performance.  On the other hand, Edit operations
are not animatable, and past edits cannot be modified procedurally.

To maintain a history of operations, or to animate operations, use Transform,
Soft Transform, Peak, or Soft Peak instead.

Please see the Edit SOP help for more information.

Keyboard Shortcuts (See Ctrl-right-mouse menu for full list):
    ${h.pane.gview.state.sop.edit.toggle}:
        Toggle between Transform mode and Peak mode
    ${h.pane.gview.state.sop.edit.flatten}:
        Flatten the currently selected geometry to the construction plane.

Notes:
    Often you will want to quickly modify geometry by repeatedly clicking
    and dragging freely.  For this type of work, make sure the
    Secure Selection button on the left is turned OFF.  This will allow
    you to avoid pressing ${h.pane.gview.repeat_current} to start a new
    operation.

    As a special feature of the Edit operation, you can toggle the handle
    quickly without clicking its icon on the left side.  Repeatedly pressing
    the following keys will toggle the handle on and off:
    ${h.pane.gview.handle.xform.translate}:
        Toggle Translate handle
    ${h.pane.gview.handle.xform.rotate}:
        Toggle Rotate handle
    ${h.pane.gview.handle.xform.scale}:
        Toggle Scale handle
    ${h.pane.gview.handle.edit.peak}:
        Toggle Peak handle
