Howdy. The question has been asked before, but the solution offered isn't quite what I'm looking for and thought you all might have some constructive input.
I want the ability to have a drop-down list of variables for a given parameter. For example, the parameter is MATERIAL and I'd like the drop down list in the model tree to contain ALUMINUM, STEEL, ABS, etc. The answer that is out there is use the Restricted Parameter List, which works almost exactly how I want except it is a RESTRICTED list.
In other words, I want the convenience of having a drop down list but I want my users to be able to use a value that's not in the list. Also, I don't want to have to modify my restricted parameter file every time someone wants to use a new material.
Does that even make sense? Any ideas on how to do this?
Many thanks,
