Parameter table always visible

[RTschaggelar]

It seems somewhat odd to me, that the parameter table is not permanently visible. I'd consider it such a productivity boost. Why would I have to memorize all variables? This may be doable for mickey-mouse projects, but from a certain number of variables up .. Alternatively, I could do a screenshot of the parameter table, but why not having the real variables. This would allow to copy paste them into the places where they are actually to be filled in

Are you talking about the equation editor parameters? This has always been my most hated feature in CAD apps.

FreeCADs spreadsheets is one of many of its CAD innovations over Big CAD.

Yes, the equation editor parameters. They are (!) the design. The rest are clicks and work.

script, add on and excel are workarounds

An "Always on top" setting ?

The analyse sketch window is another one that should stay open while you fix each error. having to close it each time except for the built-in heal function is frankly ridiculous.

We are getting further off topic, but I just found out that there is a "Zoom To Selection" button hidden in the menu (can also have a keyboard shortcut assigned to it, or be added to customized toolbars). This "Zoom To Selection" function should be incorporated into the Analyze Sketch window to let you zoom into a selected problem item. Maybe triggered by a button or a double click on the problem item or a user option to do so automatically on problem item selection.
