I recorded a track out at Foothill College yesterday, for a class assignment. For anyone's reference, I'm including the gpx file here (it's only 8KB). Part of the track is fine, but about half of it, the latter half, is *way* off, showing me wandering blithely through the middle of a building. I need to be able adjust a group of points (but *not* all of them), and move them to more-reasonable locations. I'd obviously prefer to do that graphically with drag-and-drop, rather than manually updating coordinates. Is there *any* way I can manage that in TF ?? If not, can anyone recommend a (preferably free) program that handles this task?
Later note: I could not upload the file to here, because the upload folder is apparently full. Instead, I've placed it on my website:

Seems like you are still looking for the box select tool? It does exactly what you describe -- allows you to select a group of points and drag and drop them to a new location. Or am I missing something?
Thx for the heads up on full attachment space. I increased the limit.
Cheers.

Geeez, I'm such a dolt... ???
Actually, your "Select Point" option is exactly what I want in this case.
I rejected "Select Box" initially in this case, because I couldn't put a box around the points I WANT to move without also selecting points I didn't want to move. However, what I *really* wanted to do is just move each point into the middle of the path that I know I was walking on... which is exactly what "Select Point" does.
I don't know *why* I am so easily confused these days.
Anyway, once again TopoFusion proves itself to be not only an ideal tool, but the only easy-to-use tool for the job... Thank you for your help.
There *is* another issue that I have with TF, relevant to my current requirement, but it's a different topic, so I'll post it separately.
