There are a few possibilities.
Firstly there is no need to set the same parameter 10 times.
Select all the objects and change them once altogether.
Use Find And Select to help you add all objects with the same name to your selection set.
You can even save the selection criteria for later use.
Another ay would be to use an external text file to save the required values.
You would need an object that you can set the parameter values you want and that object can write those values to an external text file.
This text file can automatically be saved into the job folder and the file name can be set to reflect the job name and purpose (ie Smith residence ceiling height).
This way the file will not get mixed up for other jobs.
Now you need your objects to read in this value from the text file.
I prefer to use the DATA in/out routine rather than the TEXT in/out.
It is all in the GDL reference.
A third option now could be the Model View Options in version 13 and above.
This is not a perfect solution as you would have to set the values in every model view scheme that you have otherwise you will find objects moving around all over the place.
We need Graphisoft to create a similar system to the Model View Options so that we can manipulate object parameters on a global basis but not have this linked to an actual model view scheme.
This has been discussed in another thead as a wish.
