Use the Parameters Browser to parameterize the contents of a
session file or report template and automate a variety of analysis processes with the
Parameters Browser.
The reality of automation is that it is not always desirable to re-apply automation
scripts exactly as they were originally defined. To remedy this, the Parameters Browser, used with report templates, includes a graphical
user interface for defining parameters that can be changed when an automation script
is executed. After the parameters are defined, you can save the automation script
and run it from the Flexible Report Templates dialog.
The Parameters Browser displays all windows and pages in the
current session, including the attributes assigned to each entity. Under each entity
is a list of the entity's attributes. Activating the checkbox next to any attribute
includes the attribute as a parameter in the parameter table (located in the lower
half of the browser), which is defined or kept in its
default state when the process is re-run. To display the browser, click View > Browsers > HyperWorks > Parameters. Figure 1. Parameters Browser
