Transfer Parameters - Compose and rewrite parameter values

Transfer Parameters lets users build or rewrite parameter values from other model parameters. It is useful for standardizing names, codes, and composed text without editing elements one by one.

General Description

The add-in works with a selected category, source parameters, a destination parameter, and a composition structure. It can run over the whole model, the active view, a manual selection, or host-based reinforcement workflows, and supports modes such as wrap, replace, and regex.

Key Features

  • Category selection: Limits processing to the required element type.
  • Source and destination parameters: Defines what data is read and where it is written.
  • Configurable structure: Uses prefixes, suffixes, and parameter order.
  • Transformation modes: Supports Wrap, Replace, and Regex.
  • Flexible scope: Can run on the model, the active view, or a targeted selection.

Usage Procedure

  1. Open Transfer Parameters and select the working category.
  2. Define the source parameters and the destination parameter.
  3. Build the text structure with prefixes, parameters, and suffixes.
  4. Choose the selection scope and, if needed, the transformation mode.
  5. Run Execute to write the new value to the target elements.
