Basic line/wire placement and editing. How do I edit a line or a wire
that has already been placed. How do I move it, or move a
segment/vertex of a line/wire. I assume it is the same technique to
move a wire and a line. I have tried the SCH program so far, but
checking the PCB manual didn't give any clue either.
This is what I mean with basic; it is the normal tasks of creating a
schematic. And when doing that, at least I am ones in a while wiring
to the wrong pin or there may be a better route to make the schematic
more readable. And then... How do I edit the wire?
Well, so far I am not speaking about all the attributes possible to
set to a wire. Just the normal doinigs and undoings.
I've used several other CADs, and I know it's always a bit tricky
while learning, but here I haven't even found any examples or
instructions on how to do this. I guess that's why I feel stupid,
since it therefor must be very simple.

You say how to edit wires or graphical lines while placing them as
if it's immediately obvious what you're trying to accomplish - with
respect, it's not obvious.
Please give an example or two it'll then become clearer if what
you're trying to do is feasible...
Cheers,

Hi!
As being new to KiCAD I've looked everywhere I could think of, tried
different approaches for placing wires and lines. I just can't
get any
manual page or description, not even in the tutorial for how to edit
wires or graphical lines while placing them, nor when later editing
them.
Is there a such and I have simply missed it, or does everyone know
it already so that it is so very well known that it is considered
common knowledge?
I don't mean to be rude, but I really can't find _any_
instructions on
the matter.
I feel like I'm stupid as ... * Well, you know the feeling that
creeps
up when you feel something is obvious and you didn't get it...

Hi,
Place your cursor on the wire that you want to edit and right click.
A context menu will appear allowing you to delete or break a wire
already placed or will allow you to place a label on the wire.
Wire colours can not be changed at this time.
Anyway try it for yourself.
David.
