Each ParaCell component can contain 9 driving parameters. The driving parameters are linked to the parameters matrix assigning the values based on the location in the population matrix.

Pressing the button in the ParaCell panel creates the driving parameters for the active cell. Assigning any of these values within the excel formula of any of the ParaCell values will channel the values from the parameters matrix to the component.

The parameters matrix contains the values of the 9 parameters within each populated component. The matrix can be opened by pressing the button. The parameters values are ordered as follow within each grid cell (a 3×3 matrix space). Pressing the ‘Show Field’ highlights the matrix grid layout.

Values can be imported from the Voxel Modeler panel to the selected parameter (in the matrix) by pressing the ‘Get from VXL’ button. The values can be edited in the Voxel Modeler by sending them (’Send to VXL’ button) and re-importing them.

When populating the components, the driving parameters values are inserted from the parameters matrix.
