You mean, that? https://youtu.be/x7_KgeLOcKY?feature=shared
No, I meant even easier, In a single (more complex) sketch, I can't just reference another dimension by clicking on it (as far as I know at least)
Oh, I think I understand. I generally select a bunch of things and use https://wiki.freecad.org/Sketcher_ConstrainEqual and never thought of selecting the dimensions directly. That sounds like a good idea/convenience indeed :)
yeah that works, but if you want a+20mm or a*1.5 etc, doesn't work so well.
Yup, absolutely, it's a good idea. Did you think of creating a feature request on their bug tracker? https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/issues
No, I'm not even sure that this feature doesn't currently exist
