Question: how to adjust parameter within the simulation

Hallo Everybody!

I have a question concerning MapleSim5 and the "change of parameters during the simulation".

I am trying to build a kind of gantry crane, consisting of a vehicle with a pendulum. The mass on the pendulum can be pulled up and pulled down (the pendulum length can be varied). The inertia of the pendulum changes with this length of the pendulum. The pendulum is represented by a "Rigid Body". In this block it is possible to enter the matrix of inertia. 

My problem:

Is it possible to change this entry (inertia matrix) as a function of pendulum length?!

Thanks in advance!
