iLogic/API: Prevent renaming of certain Parameters

iLogic/API: Prevent renaming of certain Parameters

Sometimes iLogic and Add-ins are used to drive certain Parameters, such as for a configurator. In order to do this, they need to be able to reliably access those parameters using their names. This can easily get broken if a user changes the name of a parameter, not knowing it will break the configurator.

 

Therefore, please provide a way for iLogic/the API to make the name of a parameter read-only. This could perhaps be done by adding renaming as a DisabledActionType for Parameters. The result would look exactly how derived-in parameters look, with the Name field disabled from editing:

It´s not a 100% matching solution, and it could be drawbacks that you don´t want. But it is possible to set a parameter invisible throught the API. 

When it´s invisible it´s hard to change the name, but its also hard to change the value.
