PARAMETER PROMOTION IN A BLOCK DIAGRAM MODELING ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A computer-readable medium containing instructions executable by at least one processor, the computer-readable medium comprising:
- one or more instructions for receiving a selection of a block, a subsystem or multiple blocks from a block diagram modeling environment running on a computing device;
one or more instructions for presenting, to the user, a set of parameters associated with the block, subsystem, or multiple blocks;
one or more instructions for receiving, from the user, selection of a first subset of parameters from the set of parameters; and
one or more instructions for creating a customized dialog box, using the computing device, by promoting the selected first subset of parameters to the customized dialog box, wherein the customized dialog box permits editing of values associated only with the first subset of parameters.

Abstract
A computational device receives, from a user, a selection of a block, a subsystem or multiple blocks from a block diagram modeling environment, and presents, to the user, a set of parameters associated with the block, subsystem, or multiple blocks. The computational device receives, from the user, selection of a first subset of parameters from the set of parameters, and creates a customized dialog box by promoting the selected first subset of parameters to the customized dialog box, wherein the customized dialog box permits editing of values associated only with the first subset of parameters.

15. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving, from a user, a selection of a block, a subsystem or multiple blocks from a block diagram modeling environment, the receiving performed using a computing device; presenting, to the user, a set of parameters associated with the block, subsystem, or multiple blocks, the presenting performed using a computing device; receiving, from the user, selection of a first subset of parameters from the set of parameters, the receiving performed using a computing device; and creating a custom masked block by promoting the selected first subset of parameters to the custom masked block such that only values associated with the promoted first subset of parameters may be edited by a block user, the creating performed using a computing device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A device, comprising:
one or more processing units configured to implement a user interface and configured to; receive, via the user interface, a selection of a block, a subsystem or multiple blocks from the block author, present, via the user interface, a set of parameters associated with the block, subsystem, or multiple blocks, receive, via the user interface, selection of a first subset of parameters from the set of parameters, and create a custom masked block by promoting the selected first subset of parameters to the custom masked block such that only values associated with the first subset of parameters may be edited by a user of the custom masked block. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28)
