[TIP, TOOL]{INFORMATIVE} GOTCHA: Cameo: If you run a parametrics calculation from an instance symbol in a diagram it will just show computed values in the simulation window; if you run from an Instance Table diagram it will populate the instance Slots with the computed values.
[CAPABILITY, DISPLAY, FEATURE, TIP, TOOL]{INFORMATIVE} MagicDraw/Cameo: SysML Parametrics: To colour instance table cells to indicate broken constraints you need to create at least one Simulation Configuration Diagram, which loads a validation profile with colour coding rules.
[FEATURE, TIP, TOOL]{INFORMATIVE} MagicDraw/Cameo: You can import excel spreadsheets with data into instance tables easily!
