Direct user entry of XY Co-ords for Text ?

PCB.Wiz
I may be missing something as other CAD Pgms readily allow user edit of X,Y, but it seems LibreCAD has removed this direct user entry of XY Co-ords for Text ?

I need to have absolute control of Text XY, as that information is Passed to other software.
I can edit DXF, and that works, but is rather inefficient.

Did I miss an option somewhere ?

There seems to be a ton of room on the Text.Properties menu, for user edit of XY & Z ?
Can this be added, if there is no switch ?
(There are cases where Edit of Z is useful, even in 2D CAD. Nice to have it edit/save )

I also notice Text.Properties.Oblique seems to be always Greyed - what enables that ?

Ideally, Text.Properties should allow edit access of ALL DXF fields, even ones that do not apply to rendering.

Select Text or Mtext command.
After clicking "OK" in the Text or Mtext window, you will see that the command line changes to "Specify insertion point". There you can input your insertion point as X,Y
