You can use the option "parameter" in DM and edit it from the WB directly.

If you use Javafoil for instance to generate your airfoil points, you can do the same parameter setup in DM and then just "tick" your chord as parameter (cf figures bellow) after you can just edit them in the WB and everything updates automatically.
