    If you want all points to line up (for instance, if you want to move all points to the centerline) just select your points, then enter new values in the coordinates dialog box that appears on the screen.

    If you want to offset a group of points, relative to their initial locations, select the ones you want, click Transform --> Move and enter offset values for the X, Y and Z axes in the "Translation vector" box.

    Dynamic moving

    Thanks Bruce,

    Is there a way to move a group of points dynamically, by moving you mouse?

    You can also select the edge, go to edge menu and extrude the edge in the direction that you want
