Description

PullDownParameter is a variable containing a constant that can be of any VisualSim data type. The PullDownParameter is defined by drag-n-drop action from the ModelSetup->PullDownParameter Library folder into the a hierarchical block.  The PullDownParameter value and name must be updated before it can be used.  The parameter can be modified, prior to the start of each simulation. 

Double click of a PullDownParameter allows the user to enter the values that must be present in pull down. Values must be entered in a array and the values in array position defines their position in pull down menu.

Example to define PullDownParameter to select a integer values between 1,2,3,4; the value in "Valid Values" attribute of PullDownParameter must be as {1,2,3,4}

If the user wants to have a Pull Down parameter for String variables, then the attribute "Valid Values" must be defined as {"String1","String2","String3"}

The PullDownParameter can be used only in Hierarchical blocks or class blocks

⇒Note: Illegal data values for the parameter will generate error messages. If the PullDownParameter placed in top level Block Diagram and not in a Hierarchical block, then pull down option will not be avaialble
