Can't use dimension in sqrt() function

[SGoldthwaite]

In sketch workspace, I want to use a dimension with the sqrt() function.  For example, if d5 = 2 inches, I'd like the formula for d6 to be sqrt(d5), but Fusion doesn't accept this.  It will accept sqrt(2), which it converts to ( sqrt(2) ) * 1"

It seems strange Fusion won't let me do this.

Yup, I ran into this one a while ago too.  Posted here and got the answer -- You need to make the output of the sqrt unitless for it to work.  

So if d5 is in inches, try sqrt(d2 / 1 in)  This will cancel out the inches and allow you to enter the function.

Thanks.  I got it working with your info.  It's strange Fusion has this issue with units.
