To Link Numeric Parameters Between Files

With Inventor Professional, you can link to selected parameters from any combination of part, sheet metal, assembly, or weldment model types. The selected parameters do not have to be exported previously.

  1. Set up a link from one file to another by using the Link button in one file’s Parameters dialog (Manage tab Parameters panel Parameters).
  2. In the Link Parameters dialog box, use the Status buttons at the top to change the status of all selected parameters quickly. You also can click a status icon next to an individual parameter and toggle the status options.

    Links the selected parameters from the linked file. Includes the comments from the linked parameters.

    Excludes the selected parameters from linking.

  3. If desired, select the Show All Parameters check box to display both non-exported and exported parameters in the list. A hand icon identifies exported parameters.
    Note: Indicates that a folder contains mixed linked and non-linked parameters
