Hi people

Can I create Variables to use in equations?
Like
A = 60
B = 20

equation 1.

"D1@LocalLPattern1" x A = "D2@LocalLPattern1"
"D3@LocalLPattern1" X B = "D4@LocalLPattern1"

Emerson,

Why not just use your predefined numbers?

"D1@LocalLPattern1" x 60 = "D2@LocalLPattern1"
"D3@LocalLPattern1" X 20 = "D4@LocalLPattern1" Scott Baugh, CSWP :)

you could create a dummy dimension and use this dimension to hold your variable.

I.E if you create a sketch and draw a pair of construction lines 60mm apart and then dimension them you can use the dimension as you variable. Change the dimension and your equations will change.
