In Parameter Editor,
if you fill each component of the radius parameter of a sphere node with same values,how do you do it?
Value Ladder by MMB drag on the parameter is one of the ways.
However,I want to type numbers without Value Ladder.
My way is to type a value in x component and copy it and press tab-key,Ctrl-v in y component and then again press tab-key,Ctrl-v in z component.
Umm,bothers me.
Is this a general way?

Yes, there are various clever ways to accomplish this. One way is to enter an expression that links the fields:

ch(“radx”)


This makes the y and z radius inherit whatever value the x radius has.

To try in other places, right-click in a parameter field and choose Copy Parameter. Then go to a destination field, right-click, and choose Paste Copied Relative References.

I think so.
I wanted to fill multiple fields with same values as if I worked with any spreadsheet.
It seems impossible.

sadly not in Parameters Pane, but you can do it in channel list (part of Animation Editor(H14)/Channel editor(H13) ), or you can have it as a separate pane
- just scope your channels and then you can CTRL+select multiple of them, or even CTRL+drag to select with one swipe
- then simply enter the value and it will change for all of them

EDIT
you can as well use Parameter Spreadsheet for that
