$set_parameter()
Scope:
schematic
Window: Schematic Editor
Usage
$set_parameter(parameter_name_value_type_triplets)
SET PARameter parameter_value_type_triplets
Check > Parameters > Set
Description
Assigns values to parameters in FOR, IF, and CASE expressions, and in
parameterized property value expressions on a schematic sheet.
The $$check() function generates warnings for all expression variables that have
not been assigned some initial value, if the check_parameter internal state variable
is set to @all.
Values assigned with the $set_parameter() function are persistent; the values are
saved when the sheet is saved.
When the menu item is invoked, a dialog box is displayed in the active window.
When the command or function is typed without arguments on the command line,
a prompt bar is displayed.
Arguments
• parameter_name_value_type_triplets (Name, Value, Type Trios)
This argument is a repeating string that is composed of three values:
parameter_name, parameter_value, and parameter_type.
o parameter_name (Name)
This argument is a text string specifying the name of an expression
variable (parameter) to which you want to assign a value.
