Hi Tim, you mean that when you are drawing a line you want a shortcut for placing the first point of the line?
You can do that currently by typing 0 <enter> to place the point you are currently picking at 0,0,0.
Anytime that you are placing a point, you can type in specific coordinates, and you will see your keystrokes go into the xyz coordinate box at the bottom of the window:
That same area will show you the coordinates of the current point when you are picking with the mouse.
Also if you click in that box a panel will pop up and you can enter in some values that way without using the keyboard if you want. If you just start typing numbers without clicking, then the numbers will just go directly in there and the pop-up panel will not show.
There are also a few different methods available for entering points in different ways, like relative to the previous point, or in polar coordinates (angle and distance rather than x,y,z), see here for the list: http://moi3d.com/1.0/docs/moi_command_reference1.htm#__XYZ%20/%20Distance%20/%20Angle
The one you want is 0 which is a shortcut for 0,0,0 .
