This task shows
you how to change the parameters of a part.
|

|
1. |
Select a part, in this case a
piping elbow at the end of a run, and click the Edit Part
Parameters button
. The Manage
Override Parameters dialog box displays.
 |
|
2. |
The box displays parameters
that can be overridden for the part you selected. In this case only the
CutAngle can be overridden. Parameters that can be overridden are
assigned to a part when you build a
part of a
specified type. |
|
3. |
When you select the parameter
the current value appears in the = box next to Edit value of the
current parameter. |
|
4. |
Enter the new value, for
example 30deg, and click Apply. The cut angle of the elbow
will be updated to 30 degrees.

|
5. |
When the option Keep
Parameter Values as Default is available you can use it to place
parts (of the same type) with the same values. To use it: Place a part
in your document, bring up the Manage Override Parameters
dialog box, and check the option. Parts you place subsequently will
have the same override parameter values as the part you just placed.
This holds true until you exit the command or change the option
setting. This option is not available with all commands. It only
applies to override parameters. |
|
6. |
The option Select
Parameter Values from Another Part allows you to apply the
override parameter values from a part to other placed parts. To use it:
Select a part, bring up the Manage Override Parameters
dialog box, and check the option, and select another part. The first
part you select will get its values from the second part. You can
select other parts to apply the same values. This option works with
the same part type. It only applies to override parameters. |

Click OK to close
the dialog box. |
