Hi Ulisses,

> I tried to select the point and TAB to type the coordinates without success.

You can use the Transform > Move command to do that.

Select the point you want to move, then run the Transform > Move command.

For the base point, click (with object snap on) on your point, then for the target point type in your x,y,z coordinate.

I do want to have a way to set this in the properties panel, currently properties for points are not fully developed.


> Also, if I want to move the whole line 10 units in Z, how to do it precisely?

Type 10 and push Enter, that will enable a distance constraint of 10 on the next action. Then drag the line in the Z direction, with "Straight snap" enabled.

You can also use Transform > Move - select the line you want to move and then run the Transform > Move command. For the base point type in 0 and push Enter that will use 0,0,0 for the base point. For the target point type in 0,0,zvalue and push enter.

Thank you both for the great tips.
Now I can adjust better my moves.

I come from animation 3D software and concepts are a little different.

Great software, loving it.
