If sketch parameters could be imported and controlled from individual spreadsheet then i guess either directly from spreadsheet or (if not that capable) from external application two parameters (two cells) could be controlled with preset relation (something like math formula)... and that would actu...

The spreadsheet looks indeed very promising.
I tried to figure out, how to set a cell value from the python console, but didn't got it done. Is it allready possible to do this? And how can this be done?

Then I came to the point, that the diameter of the helix doesn't seems to matter. You can make the same sweeps from helices wit...
