Hmm...the stl file has no information about these properties. It is a collection of faces connected together by the edges of the faces.

So, there is nothing to change.

If you create the file in FreeCAD and export it to them as STL then you can offer them some control of those types of parameters. The export to mesh operation is not parametric. A new export would need to be done with each parameter change, or perhaps do it in python. Possibly a feature python object could serve as a document object observer that exports the object on each change.
