Helix parameters via a Design Table?

    Is it possible to control a helix, other than the diameter, via a design
    table? I'm trying to have varying lengths of the same spring in
    different assembly configurations.

    I haven't tried it, but I would presume that any dimension you can get to
    with a double-click you can put in a design table. Just try it.

    just tested it..........with double click on a helix feature, all the
    parameters appear as dimensions which can be edited/referenced etc. besides
    the clockwise\counter-clockwise parameter.

    You can also rename the parameters. I recommend you do this,
    especially if you are going to put them in a design table. RMB the
    dimension and select "Properties", and you will see where dimension can
    be renamed.

    Thanks to all. Some days the old brain never quite gets into top gear
    and things like dbl clk and RMB just don't appear.
