Summary
This dialog allows a user to view, edit or disable a varied parameter used for a component Variant.
Access
The Parameter Variation dialog is accessed by performing the following steps:
- In a compiled project that includes variants, switch to a variant using the drop-down field in the Variants toolbar.
- Switch the Schematic Editor from the base design view (Editor tab) to the compiled view tab, located at the bottom left-hand side of the workspace.
- Double-click on a component's visible, varied parameter (for example, its Comment).
Options/Controls
- Name – this is a non-editable field that is populated by the logical, as opposed to physical, component parameter information (the Name of the parameter).
- Visible – when this option is enabled, the parameter is displayed (non-editable; set in the base design).
- Lock – when this option is enabled, the parameter cannot be reassigned (non-editable; set in the base design).
- Value – this is a non-editable field that is populated with the logical component parameter data (the Value of the parameter).
- Visible – when this option is enabled, the value is displayed (non-editable; set in the base design).
