Mode
Cartesian / Polar: (Not available for all modes) You may choose which coordinate system you want to use to specify the point. See also the example below.
X / Y (U / V) and Radius / Angle: Depending of what mode you have chosen, these two text fields will be called either X/Y (U/V) or Radius/Angle. You may enter the values for these two coordinates here.
Relative (Not available for all modes)
This option is active only, if you had to have to specify another point previously. Then you may decide whether you want to give the coordinates of this point relative to the previous one or not.
OK
Accepts the input and closes the window.
Cancel
Closes this dialog box without performing any further action.

This examples shows two steps in the creation of a brick. Imagine you got into this dialog box in order to specify the second point. The first point shall have the coordinates (1,1), the second one (2,2) in Cartesian coordinates.
Now you have got four possibilities to specify the values of the second point:
