Community Suggestion: Math with Variables
Currently you can add a variable of type number, but you can't do anything with it. I would like to see an option where I could perform simple math operations such as subtracting.
This would open up the variable system to show relative information such as when you refer in an article to an event and say "it was 4 years ago", that number will be outdated. Where if you could write "it was years ago" that number will change to 5 when we we enter 2022 and I change the variable.

This suggestion did not achieve sufficient support This is a great idea but it will require more support - please feel free to submit again at a later time and try to gather more support.

on 2021-05-12 19:46I believe this would be super useful because I utilize tooltips right now to show off the differences in foot to centimeters, pounds to kilograms, and more.
