The "Known" expression
The "Known" expression
(OP)
This is a question for "John the Evangelist". Pro/E has a function that I would find very useful almost daily. The feature is the "known" variable. This is very like a reference dimension in UG except that there is a variable name associated with it, so one can reference it elsewhere. I know there is the "measure" feature, but I am a bit gun shy after having that function cause some serious mayhem in a series of parts. Programing wise this seems like a very simple request. Do you know if there is any chance of something like this getting implemented, or if there is some reason that it is too difficult? It is a feature that would exist only in a sketch.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
