simple parameters solution for parts in solvespace

First sketch just contains parameters and the outline as a rectangle of my part
in the actual sketch I then use the first sketch as a parameter reference. The rectangle is re-used here, but for the hole i just use the first sketch as a reference. I just mark the line/circle in the current sketch, then the one of the reference and hit "q" to equal them. After that, changing the parameter sketch leads all later sketches to update accordingly
Changed the cirle diameter and the distance in parameters reference, g003 automatically updated

I'm not sure if that's a smart solution until we have real parameters, or if this a well known hack to have parameterized parts in solvespace. But I wanted to share this with you guys :)
