    Try this:
    Create a Cube and make it Editable (C) /
    select the Use Points Tool /
    go to Structure / Add Point /
    in the Viewport hover your cursor over any edge or line
    (the line will go white) click anywhere on this line to set a new point /
    switch to the Move Tool (E) and move any point into position.

    Cheers

    In Point mode, when you come close with your cursor to any point,
    they turn a little bigger and white, to make it easier to select.
    (I presume you made the cube editable ? = Functions / Make Editable)

    To change the colour of your points, go to Preferences / Viewport / Colours /
    Active Points or Inactive Points.

    Another idea might be, to see what you
