Save a list of parameter for future models

Save a list of parameter for future models

When you model variants of a similar item, you find that the parameters being created are repetitive.  Like, stock thickness, height, width, length, etc.

 

I was hoping that the 'Favorites' part of the parameter list was global to all new drawings, but it is not.

 

I propose something like what we have in CAM, where you can save a set of operations as a template.  Give the user the ability to save a list of parameters as a template to be loaded into future drawings.

 

It would save time, and soon you would remember the parameter names you use most, because as we know, finding a parameter when you don't remember what you named it, is less than user friendly.

Either one would server the purpose. However, I would suggest the 'save as a template' concept as it matches the workflow in CAM for saving off a set of tool paths as a template.
Saving the template to the cloud so you can use it in other locations would be a bonus. I for one, regularly work from 3 geographically disparate locations.

Even the ability to save the parameters as a text file would be useful.
