A tool to easily import parameter from an imported family

For importing parameters currently the following steps are necessary:

 

  - Open the Type Properties window of the imported family

  - Click on the small rectangle at the right of the row representing the parameter to import to open the corresponding "Associate Family Parameter" dialog

  - Click on the "New Parameter" icon on the "Associate Family Parameter" dialog to open the "Parameter Properties" dialog

  - Recreate a parameter of the same name by writing the name once again in the "Name" field of the dialog

  - Click OK in the "Parameter Properties" dialog

  - Click OK in the "Associate Family Parameter" dialog

 

...repeat the same procedure for all other parameters to import.

 

A quite cumbersome and time consuming procedure...

 

I wish there was a "check to import me" button for each of the parameters in the "Type Properties" dialog of the imported family which, together with the "OK" button, would do the trick...
