Yes. use VALLUES

VALUES "a" 0,1,1.25,1.5,2,5,custom

This adds a value list to the width of the object.

In parameterscript :

VALUES "basin" "t1","custom"

IF basin="t1" THEN
PARAMETERS a = 1.2 ! Set parameter A to 1.2
LOCK "a" ! Lock parameter A to be edit manually
ENDIF
IF basin="custom" THEN
! nothing needed here
ENDIF

damien:

If all you want is for a particular option in the value list to be the default value, open the library part, in the main library part window set the value parameter to the preferred default, and then save the part.
