Properties editable from layers

Properties editable from layers

Hello,

 

I am wondering whether the layer functions could not be used more efficiently.

 

At the moment, if I want to change the wall thickness of some regions, I work like follows

 

1.) Create a layer A

2.) Select elements to be placed on layer A

[3.) Assign a different color of the elements on the layer -> Helps talking with design engineers..;) ]

4.) Select elements on layer A again (might have placed them there in several steps)

5.) A window opens where I have to validate the selection of elements again.

6.) Change wall thickness

 

If we could have an option in the layer stating 'Change properties' it could work like follows

 

1.) Create a layer A

2.) Select elements to be placed on layer A

[3.) Assign a different color of the elements on the layer -> Helps talking with design engineers..;) ]

4.) Select option 'Change properties' which directly allows me to

5.) Change wall thickness.

 

The benefit would be obvious by subsequent simulations when I can start with point 4 in the second option.
