How to detect if user has changed a modelParameter

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to create a model that is fully parametric, so the user can fiddle with parameter values to get the exact shape they want. Problem is, if the parameters of certain features are changed, some operations have to be performed again for the model to look okay. I'm wondering how to detect if a parameter has been changed so I can schedule those operations. Here's an example of an out-of-the-box model with 3 pegs: 

If the user changes the countU of the pattern to, say, 5:

How can I say that if the user changes this parameter, perform the extrusion of the central hole again?

Hello,

Unfortunately with current APIs there is no way to give notification when a parameter is changed. Maybe a new Event can meet the kind of requirements. I would like to recommend you log a request in our ideastation.

In your specific example, if the feature order is correct in the timeline it should happen automatically.  If the pattern feature is before the extrude feature that creates the hole, then the pattern will be calculated and the hole will be added after.  It won't matter how many instances are in the pattern.  Parametric modeling is very dependent on the order the features are calculated and you have control over that by defining their order in the timeline.
