Splitting a topology edge with the selection anchor

You can temporarily add new topology nodes to split edges. This simply splits the edge for the topology; it does not break the feature into two features. This can be useful when you want to move one part of an edge without affecting other parts of the edge or when you want to create a new node to which to snap.

Steps:

1. Click the Topology Edit tool on the Topology toolbar.
2. Click the edge you want to split.
3. Hold down the CTRL key and drag the selection anchor to the place where you want to split the edge.
4. Right-click and click Split Edge At Anchor.
