I want to be able to take a measurement "d1@sketch1" and - .05 from that size. I have tried searching with no luck and also trying different methods. Basically I want it to be like the equations menu but within the properties in a weldment cutlist and then have the subtracted total show up in my BOM cutlist. Any ideas would be great.

Right now i have to draw it under sized then add a .025 border around everything so I can call out the .05 smaller dim.

Have you tried using the Equations Editor to create a Global Variable, and then reference that in the properties?

"AdjustedLength"="d1@sketch1"-.05
