Description |
|
Creates a user variable. Prompts you: Enter name for new user parameter - type a name for the new user variable. Enter expression - enter a valid mathematical expression or a fixed value. |
|
|
Edits the expression for the dimensional constraint or user variable. Prompts you: Enter parameter name - type the name of a dimensional constraint parameter or a user variable. Old Expression = (d1*2 + p)/3, Value = 4.33333 Enter expression - type a new mathematical expression or press Enter to confirm the current expression. |
|
|
Renames a dimensional constraint or user variable. Prompts you: Enter old parameter name - type the name of an existing dimensional constraint or user variable. Enter new parameter name - type a new name for the dimensional constraint or user variable. |
|
|
Deletes a dimensional constraint or user variable. Prompts you: Enter parameter name to delete - type the name of an existing dimensional constraint or user variable. |
|
|
Lists all dimensional constraints and user variables in the current drawing, showing the name, expression and current value of each dimensional constraint or user variable. |
