Hello:
I am totally new to CorelDRAW.
I could not find a way to precisely set the coordinates of a point on a path. Consulting the manual, I became confused. When I select the path or any closed object, I see a list of all coordinates in the Coordinates Inspector, and the point I click on with the node selection tool is highlighted. However, for the life of me, I could not enter a new value for the point, and all I ended up doing was creating new points.
Could someone kindly direct me as to how to accomplish this? I am perplexed, having not run into difficulty with such as basic function in other vector design programs. Thank you very much.

In the Windows version, when I click on an X or Y coordinate in the docker, the value becomes editable. As I make changes there, I see them on the screen in a second, "temporary" representation of the curve.
After I have made changes to coordinates, I then need to use either Create object or Replace object to make the changes permanent.
Thank you! I was expecting a double click or right-click to make the values editable. The timed select and move cursor using a pointing device works. I guess I'll have to get used to it, but it is rather cumbersome to use, at least on the macOS version.
