Fast switch between shared parameter files

Fast switch between shared parameter files

When using multiple shared parameter (SP) files, it is very inconvenient to switch between them. For example, to add a SP to a family from another SP file you need:

go to > "Family Types" dialog box> press [New parameter] button > "Parameter Properties" > [Select…] > "Shared Parameters " > [Edit] > "Edit Shared Parameters" > [Browse] > select another SP file > [Open] > [OK] > select SP > [OK].

Repeat if you need to switch back. The same steps need to be done if you need to add SP to the project or export it.

Idea: Simplify the use of multiple SP files by adding a drop-down list of recent SP files to the Shared Parameters dialog box. See image below:
