Some parts have Value range variables in addition. For these no fixed value is specified.
At these parts, in order to completely specify the characteristic, the value ranges have to be specified in addition.
Columns with value range fields are marked with colored icons ( | | ). In addition, depending on settings, columns are colored. The meaning of colors is explained below.[71]
The selected row shows the respective icon as well. In order to enter a certain value, click on the icon .
Depending on part specifications the dialog will look differently.
Value range: In the opened dialog, enter the desired value within the value range or select the value via slider (if active). After this confirm by clicking on the green checkmark.
The red line depicts the default value. By clicking on it, the default can be restored anytime.
Selection of discrete values: In the list field, select the desired option and confirm by clicking on the green checkmark.

In some value range fields graphics can be used for exemplification.
When changing a table entry the depiction in the 3D view is also immediately changed.
Meanings of colors at value range columns
There are different types of value range fields, which behave differently depending on the existence of an ERP number and are marked by multicolored icons.
The Function attribute is used for rod positions and angularities for example, for everything which defines a mechanical movement in part / assembly (e. g. rod position of a cylinder).
The Geometry attribute has to be used for those characteristics that influence the geometry; for example, if the geometry of the part or assembly is changed by the variable (e.g. maximum stroke length), or if components are added or taken away, e.g. "sensor yes/no" or "option on/off".

The Dimension attribute is used for semi-finished products and profiles, which are created in running meters (here variable L).

The Object attribute is used for variables for dimensions and/or product standards, for order numbers or technical specifications, etc. (attributes which have nothing to do with geometry or function).
