    delete_points
    insert_points

    move points in plane
    move points along vector
    move points along vector with fixed length

    Exit

    activate function
    only in mode CAD -
      select object with movable points (P,L,C,S)
       with right mousebutton, "edit curve"

        or select previously defined plane ("R#").
        or select plane in browser.

    move points of curve along vector
    Activate checkbox "vector".

    Definition of a vector. Points will be moved along this vector.
      Default is the normalvektor of the active plane ("DZ" eg for plane "RZ")
      or key into inputfield:
      - defaultvectors (DX,DY, DZ, DIX, DIX, oder DIZ) -
      - oder select vector in browser
      - or define plane (its normalvektor will be used)

    move points of curve along vector with fixed length
      "vector"  like above
      "length"  key vectorlength

    modify
    move points with mouse

    All movable points will be displayed as yellow rectangles.
    Select a yellow rectangle -
