You need to have two or more features /on the same layer/ selected.

    I thought I would give the "Merge Selected Features" tool a try.
    But, when I selected the two layers, and toggle editing, the
    "Merge Selected Features" icon is greyed out.

    I takes two or more geometries and combines them into a new
    single "multi" geometry. For example of you have two features in
    your layer that are two separate records and you merge them
    you'll now have just one record for that feature. Maybe you have
    a highway with two separated lanes and you want to both lanes
    show as separate lines but in the data you only want one record,
    then you would use the "Merge Selected Features" tool.

        Greetings,
        I am trying to merge/connect two lines.
        When I select the lines, I choose the Merge tool and choose OK.
        But, the lines do not connect.

        Am I going about this the correct way?
        Thanks,
