Is there a way to edit a point (x,y,z) or create a snap grid?

I've imported a 3D part and now trying to draw the features manually. (If there's a better way to create features, let me know.)

So as I draw lines, I get coordinates that are ALMOST correct, but need to be tweaked, for instance (7.998, -5.5, -10) needs X to be rounded to 8.000. Is there a way to do this?

Alternatively, is there a way to set up a snap grid, so that points snap to the round numbers I always use? If this could be set, I'd avoid the problem, since the points would snap to sensible values to begin with.

    @3Dzyner, Currently this facility is not available in Onshape. You can raise improvement request for this. In near future we hope that this facility will be provided by Onshape like other CAD tool.

    @3Dzyner - sketch entity locations are driven by and constrained by dimensions. If you need a specific coordinate (?) then dimension your line endpoints from the origin.

      I hope it will help the new players to make better tracks. Btw you can edit the "Hidden standard objects" and add "the fifth key"
