Abstract
A device receives information that identifies a parameter associated with a masked block that represents elements of a block diagram model that, when executed, simulates a behavior of a system. The masked block is associated with a first user interface that allows a value of the parameter to be specified for the masked block. The device receives an indication that the parameter is to be associated with a derived block that represents the elements of the block diagram model. The derived block inherits one or more properties from the masked block. The device creates the derived block, and associates the derived block with the parameter and a second user interface that allows a value of the parameter to be specified for the derived block. The device outputs or stores information that identifies the parameter, the derived block, and the association between the parameter and the derived block.
