This is my base sketch:

ive got another sketch that uses the unconstrained point, and i want to set dimensions that move the point on the base sketch. is this possible?

here's the link.. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/0789b731d80c82a40477461e/w/390cf39e06f9d6db2950f3ba/e/1f2dde15a7fac9ba142b2d84

    Sure, just Use the original point from the first sketch in the second. Though my suspicion is that you're approaching the problem in a way that's roundabout and making it more complex than it has to be.

    If you're trying to modify a sketch that was created earlier in the time line using a sketch point created later in the time line, I don't think that's possible.  If you can reverse the order of the sketches in the time line, you can use @SquidLord 's solution, the "Use (Project/Convert)" tool to define a coincident point in the second sketch.  If the order of the sketches has to remain the same, then you may have to approach the problem in a different way.  If you share the file it will be much easier to help.
