Parameter dialog crashes Proe

[kwsauter]

I have an assembly that started with a family table that I later split
into separate assemblies because of screwy behavior. Any version of the
assembly crashes every time I open the parameter dialog. I need to
change a parameter, but it just blows up every time I open the dialog.
Other assemblies and parts let me open the parameter dialog and change
them, but this one doesn't. Has anyone had this problem before?

Seems like an invalid parameter or parameter name...

Can You remember which parameters should be there? If yes, try a note showing these parameters one by one and look for irregularities.

What if You use parameters somewhere else, e.g. in the search dialog, a family table, etc.? Can You open the relations window?

Try to switch to the old parameter ui: set the option new_parameter_ui to no.

Then open the parameter dialog, make your changes, save and try to switch back to the new ui.

Ken,

What about the Relations dialog (Tools > Relations)? Can you open that? If so, what happens when you expand the Local Parameters in the lower portion of the dialog?

Also, how about adding the Model Params to the model tree (Settings > Tree Columns)? You will be able to see all the parameters and edit their values if necessary.

Thanks to Ron Thellen for the answer that worked!

I was able to edit the parameters in the model tree and got no crashes
while doing it. Thank you! I hope this helps somebody else.
