Pull request overview
Updates the about_Functions_Advanced_Parameters documentation to avoid overlocalization of the term “switch parameter” (notably in Japanese) by using the more explicit [switch] terminology across multiple versioned copies of the article.
Changes:
- Renames the “Switch parameters” section to “
[switch]parameters” and replaces most prose references accordingly. - Updates examples/wording to consistently reference
[switch](including a type example change from[SwitchParameter]to[switch]). - Bumps
ms.dateto04/08/2026in each touched article version.

…ers` Prior to this change, the term `switch parameter` was overlocalized in Japanese, munging the meaning to `parameter switching`.

The terminology will be updated across the documentation in a following change set.
