Autofill Parameter Names in Dimension Box & Parameter Table

Autofill Parameter Names in Dimension Box & Parameter Table

As you start typing a parameter name, it would increase efficiency greatly if Inventor could autofill the parameter names in a manner similar to the way Excel does or the way Visual Studio autofills function names.

 

When you have loads of parameters, it can be difficult to find a parameter from the list of parameters in the pull-down menu in the 'edit dimension' dialog box.  I think it would be more efficient if the the list pops up as soon as you type any letter and the list whittles down as you enter more characters.

Has this been sorted? I have been thinking about this option for years and I don't understand why there is no more interest on it.

@Discussion_Admin, could the ideas I listed above be merged into this one?

 

It would also be great if the following image from @QuasiMojo could be added to the body of the idea:

I'd like to see this addressed. I still don't have this option in 2021.

Hi this is Anthony from the far future of year 2021. Our robot overlords were victorious, and they have demanded to know why this feature *still* hasn't been implemented? Please contact the Resistance we don't have much time...
