Is it possible to use the Yes/No parameter in Type Catalogs?
If so, what is the syntax?

Also, while on the Type Catalog subject, can materials be done yet?

It would be awesome if both these features were available.

The Yes/No parameter in type catalogs is possible, materials are not currently supported.

type param "Change_Me" Yes/No param
catalog definition "Change_Me##other##"
where Yes is "1" and No is "0".

Actually it does work :oops: , just not the way I expected :shock:
Hate it when that happens...

type param "My_Material" Material param
catalog definition "My_Material##other##"
