There are some properties where the values displayed on project design differ from the values that you must provide in a parameter set.
For properties represented by a checkbox on project design, you must provide 0 (deactivated) or 1 (activated) as the value.
To use variable values in a parameter set, enter expressions in the same way as in the Design window. The Eval column indicates whether a property is enabled for expressions. See “Square Bracket Notation”.
You especially need expressions when setting values containing non-printing characters, such as, Tab, CRLF, and so on. You must set the Evaluate option for these properties when designing the project.
Expressions cannot be validated in the Parameter Set window.
Some menus do not display the underlying parameter value. Some of these values require you to set the Evaluate option to assign them via a parameter set.
Use this table to identify which value (Value) corresponds to the displayed one (Prompt) and whether you must enable Evaluate.
