· DesignSpark - this should be so easy, but.. help please
Normally you can select a point (=endpoint of line) and move that. If you press the space bar after selecting, when in the move tool, you can enter numeric values.
But the best is not to work on lines in sketch mode, but rather on 3D-planes and edges in 3D-mode. Contrary to most other 3D-CAD systems, DesignSpark Mechanical (and it source SpaceClaim) are designed for "push-pull modeling" of solids. You can keep editing existing shapes: it won't break the tree-structure because there is no tree...
If you haven't done so, I would highly recommend watching the tutorials on Youtube. Search for "DesignSpark Mechanical", and on the DesignSparkRS channel, in the videos scroll down to 3 and 4 years ago: there are a lot of excellent tutorials. (Later tutorials of 1 year ago are not so good, so take the old ones.)

Here comes Cura 5.9 and in this stable release we have lots of material and printer profiles for UltiMaker printers, including the newly released Sketch Sprint. Additionally, scarf seams have been introduced alongside even more print settings and improvements. Check out the rest of this article to find out the details on all of that and more
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
