Altium Designer Altium Designer

To always "Show more" when viewing a component's parameters, disable the value checkbox for the advanced preference Schematic.UI.ShowMoreOrLessParameters

Solution Details Copy Link Copied

By Default, while viewing a component's parameters in the schematic, Altium will hide parameters and display a "Show More" button. Disabling the "Show more" functionality will cause parameters to always show the full list instead of prompting the user to show more.
