I want to take the vertex in the front 10 cm higher. After selection of the vertex I bring it up and type in 10, then press enter and nothing will happen. what do I do wrong? (PL lines)

Polylines are 2D entities. They can't have vertices in different planes. You have to rotate the whole polyline. Try the 3DROTATE command.

That's impossible. It goes against the definition of a polyline. Your only option is to break the polyline at the point you want it to "bend" and rotate the new, smaller portion.

Another option would be to create a solid of the main body and another solid of the area to remove and then subtract the second one from the first one. To create the second polyline, you need to change the UCS to the XZ plane.
