Assigning a Type to the Meta Input
  1. Click Instantiation from Representation and select the file containing the template.
    The Insert Object dialog box opens.
    Note: At instantiation, depending on an option selected in the instantiation panel, meta inputs are presented instead of real inputs, except if you selected the Force meta inputs instantiation mode (an exclusive meta-inputs instantiation mode) in the definition dialog box. Inputs that remain not associated with a meta input are kept as standard inputs even in meta inputs instantiation mode
  2. Select the input in the 3D area and click OK.
    Notes:
    • If you do not select Force meta inputs instantiation when creating the meta input, two different modes are available at instantiation: MetaInputsInstantiation (the meta inputs are displayed in the Inputs list) and MetaInputsNormalInstantiation (even though meta inputs are defined, you can switch to the normal instantiation mode and select the real inputs).
    • If you select Force meta inputs instantiation when creating the meta input, the MetaInputsInstantiation instantiation mode is available. Inputs that remain not associated with a meta input are kept as standard inputs even in meta inputs instantiation mode.
