Hi @superenemy27,
I know that pain. For me, it works best if you put in your first vertex with Ctrl + Right Click and afterwards expand on an axis by pressing e to expand, followed by the axis e.g. x and the move in the right position. If you want to move it in two axis, let’s say x and y you can press (e to expand first) shift + z to exclude the z-axis.
Hope this helps.
Greetings,
