Even though I've been using Alibre for a while, I've never made use of the Global Parameters and Equation Editor, so my understanding of how it works might be off base.
That said, as I understand it, when creating a part, I can add a circle to a sketch (for example) and select a value for its diameter from the equation editor. Then later the value can be changed in the Global Parameters file and the change will be reflected in the part.
My question is: Can I do the same in a script? So far it seems all I can do in a script is set the diameter to the value of a global parameter, but there is no link created, and changes in the Global Parameters file will not be reflected in the part. (?)
