I made a small macro Macro_FCSpreadSheet_Extract which allows to save the contents of the spreadsheet with its formulas in a file csv or in file xml (I think !!)

It's true but you did it with the Rename command of the Constraint and I always tried it in the popup "Insert length" when I was changing the value. So, to sum up, I was doing two errors: 1 - FreeCAD doesn't accept any "space" character in Sketch constraint labels, 2 - I tried t...
