Displaying and Editing Parameters

Displaying and editing parameters in tree capability improves the productivity while modifying an input value for a Part Design feature. Part Design features such as Dress-Up features and Advanced Dress-Up features have their parameters displayed under their respective nodes in the tree.

It is very convenient to edit their value directly without using the dialog box of the feature. It also helps to check which parameters are bound by the knowledge and verify quickly the parameter value.

To change the value of the parameter, double-click the parameter in the tree. The Edit Parameter dialog box is displayed. Enter the value or use the spinners to modify the value. The new parameter value is automatically updated and the object is modified accordingly.

The table below lists the parameters displayed in the tree for the mentioned features.
