$set_parameter() Function Dictionary $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. 2-542 Design Architect Reference Manual, V8.5_1
