Use of variable for number of sides

I like to configure the number of sides of an inscribed polygon. I tried it with a configuration variable which is not accepted with me. I also made a variable feature which also did not succeed.
Is this impossible or am I doing something wrong? Or is there another way to steer this value other then selecting the red boxed value.

Sketch dimensions relating to pattern instance counts and polygon edge counts are currently not configurable.
One alternative workaround is to create different sketches for each polygon edge count and then configure the sketch selection for that feature to use a different sketch.Andy Morris / Head of Product Design / Onshape, Inc.5
