All the ‘power features’ of scenarios, sensitivities and templates are controlled from the Variants menu in dialogs. However, in STEM 7.4, some of the menu items were imprecise or potentially ambiguous, and so they have been updated in STEM 7.5 such that they are more self-explanatory, as shown below.

In addition, in STEM 7.4, model inputs which were targeted as parameters of these features were identified with purple text in dialogs. This coloration was not always distinct and also masked other colours, such as those which normally indicate the presence of a formula (red) or links from Excel (green/blue). In STEM 7.5, now the background of cells containing such inputs is shaded in a bright pink colour to make it clearer that they are some sort of parameter, without masking pre-existing text colours.
