How to make a Hole Feature involving variable & formula?

Hello,
I wonder if it is possible to give a hole a diameter dimention driven by a variable. 
The feature accepts the statement " #ShaftD " (variable) alone, but it rejects any formula with it.

The idea is to keep the information about the nominal shaft diameter, and choose how much clearance I want.



Thanks!

    Add units to the 0.2 value or it can't determine whether it's in or mm. When in doubt, manually add in the unit to the value and the formula should work
