Hi, as discussed in https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=64198, there seems no way to use global coordinates in expressions. Since I am new to Freecad, ¿Would allowing global coordinates in expressions make sense?. As far as I can tell, this would have proven useful to me in modelling some parts as I need to place some ones in relation to others positions. I wonder if there is some fundamental principle or philosophy that has impeded this to be implemented for so long as I find -from my newbie perspective- this to be a basic feature.
