Hello Guys

Can you please tell me how can I change, supplement the parameters of rhinoceros objects using VisualARQ?
Is there any definition for an example?

Hello @AlexWer,

Parameters are a VisualARQ feature. You can add or change parameters straight from VisualARQ in Rhino: https://www.visualarq.com/support/tip/how-can-i-create-custom-parameters/. You just need to edit or add them using the three icons at the upper part of the parameters tab.

If you need to edit or create them from Grasshopper, you can do it as follows.

This is how you can create Document parameters:

This is how you can create Style parameters:

This is how you can create Object parameters:

You can set or update values this way:

Hi @alfmelbev,

Thanks for your sample files and explanations, it helps a lot.
However, update property doesn’t work for me in my case.
Is there something wrong with my operations?

I’m using VA3.0.10 and Rhino 8.11

updateproperty

Hi @tpuaup the problem here is that the “Object parameter” needs to exist in the model before you use it with the Udpate Property component. If you bake the Create Object Parameter, or the Set Value components, you will get duplicated geometry in the model. So you will need to reference that new wall to change the value of that new Object parameter.

Hi @fsalla ,

I found a new relating bug.
When creating Document Properties through GH, if property names contain non alphabetic characters, VA can only create the last property.

@tpuaup Thanks for reporting this. We will revise it as soon as possible.
