<div dir="ltr"><font face="Georgia">The "Merge Selected
Features" tool does not alter the geometries. 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.</font>
