Parameter menus?
Parameter menus?
(OP)
Is there any way to force a parameter to use a pre-assigned series of options that can be selected by the user? For example, if the parameter type is a Yes/No, when you add the parameter to be shown in the model tree, the drag down menu only shows a "Yes" and a "No" as potential selections. I would like to allow for only certain string options in a similar way. Any clues?

Thanks in advance.

RE: Parameter menus?
Thanks for the reply. I am not using Intralink developing these parameters. I am not trying to change the type of parameter, I just want to pick predefined values from a list. For example:
Parameter name is Mode and type is string.
Mode can take one of the following values: "Roll", "Pitch", "Warp", & "Heave".
I would like the values to be pick-able from a menu in either the new Parameter Editor UI or from the model tree when that parameter name is displayed. If you have a parameter type of Yes/No, you get a pull-down with only the "Yes" & "No" options. I am looking to do the same thing with other parameter types.
