How can I use a schematic parameter (such as R1/r = 10K) in an Explorer calculation?

Bret Howe

Say I have a resistor R1 in a schematic where r=10K. I want to use this value of r to calculate another value. I could make r=Rval and set this as a variable in Explorer but then I have to change the schematic whenever I want to run the simulation and then change the r=Rval back to 10K when done.

I could just use 10K in my calculations, but then if I want to change this value later, I have to find everywhere I used the value and change it.

Seems like there must be a simple way to do this. I tried making R1/r a parameter in the simulation and this allowed me to sweep the parameter but I could not find a way to use this parameter in a calculation.
