Processing Component Common Parameters
Parameters or tools that are systematically or commonly found in the
processing components are described in this section.
Conditioned Parameters Display Button
A workflow can contain a large number of parameters; some of them
being conditioned on other parameters’ values. These are called
conditioned parameters .
By default, conditioned parameters are hidden in the list of parameters
and are displayed automatically when you select an option that requires
setting other parameters. This prevents you from setting parameters that
will not be used in the configuration.
If you want to display all parameters nonetheless, you can click the
button. Conditioned parameters that should be hidden are grayed.

Publication Mode Switch Button
The button lets you apply the same publication mode to all the
parameters of a workflow. The mode switches from public to protected
and then private . Click the button until you reach the publication mode
that suits you.
This is useful when you need to change the publication mode to a large
number of parameters in a workflow.
Link Tool
When making a configuration where the same parameter is asked
several times, it can be useful to set it once and then make a reference
back to it. This is what the link tool is for. It lets you make a reference to
a parameter that is already specified in another processing component.
The following conditions should be respected:
 The two parameters must be of the same type.
 The parameter toward which the link will be made must be public, or
private with a label defined.
