Parametric content

Learn how to create a parametric document

PreviousStatic contentNextParametric equation

Last updated 3 months ago

The document generally represents:

  • Static content, such as text and images, and

  • Parametric content such as calculated charts, that can update in response to calculation results

Parametric content dynamically update when corresponding calculations run. Those calculations are defined by Sources and their Parameters which hold calculated values:

The following pages explain how you can create parametric content that update based on results of calculations.

  • To learn more about general document elements continue to Static content

  • To learn how to create calculations to power up parametric content continue to Parameters

Next, learn about Parametric Equations which is the base parametric in CalcTree:
