Access Corridor Parameter Editor - Outside of Section Editor?

This may be a simple no or not yet, but is it possible to access the Corridor Section Parameters dialog without having to load up the section Editor?  It always takes 20-30 seconds to load up the views when all I need to do is modify one parameter. Would sure be nice if the Parameter Editor was available on the Rt-Clk context menu. I even tried the command "VECSPARAMETEREDITOR" outside of the section editor, but no luck.

Could you not just right-click your Corridor from your toolspace or after selecting the corridor in your model space and go Properties / Corridor Properties. From there edit what you need. I honestly try NOT to use the corridor section editor, I create my own with multiple views, works much better. Good luck.

Those options don't gain you access to any of the individual subassembly parameters like modifying a cut or fill slopes etc for 1one or a few stations. Every situation can't be accounted for with "typical" assemblies. there's always exceptions that need to be dealt with.

As far as I know the only way to gain access to individual corridor sections subassembly parameters is to invoke the Corridor Editor then the Parameter Editor.

You make a great point. I've always strategized my corridors in a way that I often don't adjust the parameters this way. I can see why you would want to though. I might use this more from time to time now. I recently upgraded my video card and alot of the lag issues with switching between model/layout, section editor, all now seem to be much more acceptable than before. Not sure how good your card is but keep that in mind if you are looking for a performance increase. It appears you are correct, you can't access that parameters palette unless you are in the Corridor section editor.
