Syntax
ReferenceParameters.AddByExpression( Expression As String, UnitsSpecifier As Variant, [Name] As String ) As ReferenceParameterParameters
Name | Type | Description |
Expression | String | Input String value that specifies the equation for the parameter. This string is evaluated the same way as strings entered in any of the Inventor dialogs are evaluated. For example 'x + 3 in / 2 cm' is a valid string for input. |
UnitsSpecifier | Variant | Input value that specifies the type of unit the parameter is. The units can be specified using either a string defining a valid unit or an item from the UnitsTypeEnum. If the equation references existing parameters, this unit type must be consistent with the unit type defined by the equation, otherwise an error will occur. |
Name | String | Optional input String value that specifies the name for the parameter. The name must be unique with respect to all other parameters in this document. If a unique name is not specified an error will occur. If not specified, a unique name generated by Inventor is assigned to the parameter. This is an optional argument whose default value is "". |
