Parameter Override

With a parameter override, specific attributes of an input parameter can be overwritten or adapted for exactly one action descriptor.

Attribute Type Description
Parm To Override * Tool_Has_InputParameter The input parameter of the referenced tool descriptor that should be adapted.
New Parm From [C] Selection Overwrites the “Parameter_From” attribute of the input parameter, see Relationship: Tool Has Input Parameter for more information.

Possible values:

  • Context (standard value)
  • Previous_Tool
  • User_Input
New Static Value [C] String

(multi line)

Overwrites the "Static_Value" attribute of the input parameter, see Relationship: Tool Has Input Parameter for more information.
Remove Parm [C] Boolean Ignores these input parameters for this action descriptor. This is only possible if the input parameter is declared as optional, see Relationship: Tool Has Input Parameter for more information.

Default value is false

The Parameter Override attribute mutually exclude each other. Only one attribute can therefore be interpreted. The "New Parm From" attribute, for example, only works if no static parameter ("New Static Value") has been set. Similarly, a parameter can only assume a static value if it should not be ignored ("Remove Parm").
