My pleasure.

There seems to be something I am missing, we are not on the same wavelength yet. Have you followed my suggestions ? They provide good methods of working with a single line with many mid-points, as well as complex objects made up of simple line frgaments (which you can manipulate exactly).

In the above diagram, you will see a line segment that has a start and end point. However, via the geometry tool, I can only modify the entire box. Not the length of the start and end point to the corner.
(It is a single line, not a box.) I do not understand what the problem is. So in that one step you can't use the Inspector, so what. In [1] above, there are two options: depending on what you want to achieve, one option is better than the other. Just pick up start- (or end-) point and drag it to where you want it to be.

It is simpler than you think.

Make sure you Command-click on the thumbnails below, examine the full detail, and understand the distinction between:
• start-points and selected start-points
• end-points and selected end-points
• mid-points and selected mid-points
