The only issue I have with the Spreadsheet is that I need to add an alias for every value I want to use in the Sketch or Part Design workbench. In practice, this usually looks like

    A       B
    width   2mm
    length  3mm
and for every cell in B I add an alias with the same value as in column A. Is there a way around that?

VarSets[0] introduced recently in 1.0 and mentioned in a grand-aunt comment are a good alternative to spreadsheets used this way.

EasyAlias macro maybe?

Oh. I didn't even know there were macros. But that looks very useful!

Hmmm - I seem to recall there was at least 1-2 scripts or macros available to help with aliasing.
