Change default data type of a simulink block

Hi,

Is there any way to change a simulink block's default data type?

In consant, its default is "Inherit: Inherit from 'constant value'". I want it to be chosen as uint16 every time I insert a block to the model.

Here's the drop down menu that I mentioned:

Hi Bora.

For most blocks, their output data type is inherited from their inputs.

As I can see, the "Block Parameters" tab for the "Constant" block is not editable when when we choose it by right-clicking directly from the "Library Browser" window.

The output data type is only chosen based on the input provided.
