In addition to the previously explained method, to pass parameters directly from a schematic to a netlist, through a ".PARAM" text, it would also be practical in some cases to add/attach simulation parameters to one specific component.

 

For instance, this could be a capacitor's DC or AC resistance, a components temperature ("temp" parameter), a resistor´s temperature coefficient, a diode´s Reverse breakdown voltage "BV", or the gain in an amplifier subcircuit.

 

Is there a way to create such parameters as a component attribute, or property, such as the "Name" and "Value" properties?

The best example of how this works is here:  https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-electronics/is-there-a-way-to-add-spice-parameters-from-sc...

 

The .PARAM statement in the schematic is global so you define the values there but in each part is where you use them .. the example shows how to use them inside the model for a transformer for example.  

 

This is how it works today.  We are always looking for ways to make this better and we will incorporate this feedback as we review these features.
