When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also create variations of the cell that have definitions pre-defined.
I would like to have these capabilities for Civil Cells as well. It's already hard to build them since it's all based on parent-child relationships instead of constraints, but it would make the Civil Cells much more user-friendly once they are built and working properly.

Excellent idea, such functionality would be extremally useful and would simplify adjustments to relevant parameters after cell placement and reduce user frustration. It would open up new workflows for civil cells. Civil cells are on of the most powerful features of ORD, reducing modelling time, and such improvements are worth every effort.
