Some parameter branches enable you to control their parameters at the branch level.
This can either take the form of:
Defining a level of control over the parameters in the branch
Some parameter branches enable you to define a level of control over the parameters in the branch.
For Advanced users, Cimatron enables full control over all parameters. For the novice user or for Basic operations, Cimatron enables the operation with a minimum number of essential parameters.
In the example below, three levels of control are provided for a specific parameter branch.

|
|
No = Do not perform this type of operation. In some cases, this option is not available. |
|
|
Basic = Perform this type of operation. In some cases, a minimum number of essential parameters are displayed. The calculation uses Cimatron default values for the remaining (hidden) parameters.
|
|
|
Advanced = Perform this type of operation. Display all the parameters in the branch and enable full control over them.
|
Notes:
User-defined Advanced parameters are reset to the Cimatron default values when the Basic option is selected. To view these default values, switch from Basic to Advanced.
In order to see all the available parameters, make sure that the appropriate Hide/Show settings enable their visibility.
If the contents of the parameter branch is the same for the Basic and Advanced options, only the Basic option is available.
Switching the branch parameters On or Off
Some parameter branches enable you to switch the their parameters on or off.
|
|
Unchecked = Do not perform this type of operation.
|
|
|
Checked = Perform this type of operation. Display all the parameters in the branch and enable full control over them.
|
Note: In order to see all the available parameters, make sure that the appropriate Hide/Show settings enable their visibility.
