Create Block and Component Type Parameters

Now, we must create two more parameters that control the type of block being modeled. One parameter determines whether the block is a tee or elbow design. The other parameter defines whether we are creating a standard or a custom block.

1. Create a text parameter named block, and define it as a multi-value parameter with the following values:

   tee

   elbow

2. In the Equation field of this new parameter, set the current value to tee, and define it as a Key parameter.
3. Create a second text parameter named component_type, and define it a multi-value parameter with the following values:

   standard

   custom

4. Set the current value to standard, and define it as a Key parameter.
5. Click Done to exit the Parameters dialog box.
6. Save your document, but do not close it.
