Newbie here. FreeCAD is v1.1.1

Is there really no way to do simple manual vertices manipulation?

Coming from Wings3D. Found the Fase feature (PartDesign_Chamfer) which is a good start for my usual extrude/bevel workflow but I can not for my life find out how to manually select and move vertexes manually / individually.

I learned about converting a part into a mesh but even here I seem to not have the option to move vertices around freely?

Do I really have to go down to a 2D drawing first and work from there?

    Hm, nope, not getting it :( If I can extrude edges, or use that fase feature, it should also be possible to define the resulting lengths of the operation too, no?

    I do not need this to scale later on.

    Bringing Blender into this is total overkill for “I just want to set that inner height”, no?

      I’m not sure what you wish to accomplish. Maybe there’s an easy work around? I’m guessing you chamfered a corner but wish to have different side lengths of the chamfer perhaps? Maybe you can post a screenshot with some annotations to make it more clear. I’m by no means an expert in this particular software, but I do know my way around CAD.
