Multi-objective design study [SUMMARY]

[tyler.smith]

The parameter button is only available if real number parameters exist
in the top level assembly where you're running the design study.

Oddly, when selecting dimensions as design variables, you can pick from
the top level assembly OR any component in the assembly. I'm not quite
sure why parameters are treated differently. I suppose I can work
around it.

Not totally sure why you wouldn't be able to select component level parameters. You could however create some dummy geometry like a datum curve and let the length dimension of the this dummy feature serve as your parameter in the lower level components.
