I want to be able to select multiple CAD surfaces and have PC-DMIS 

automagically create vector points on those surfaces based on a predefined set 

of parameters.  For example, I want three points, equally spaced within .05" 

diameter tolerance zone, at random locations, at no less than .100" from the 

edge of the surface(s).  

Command mode, exposing all parameters, can result in very lengthy routines, but it is fast to make edits. Summary mode was intended as a simplified view, but is seen as too slow to traverse into the tree to find the parameter to make edits. This is especially true when a lot of values are changing.

It has been requested (by a customer - I'm filing this on their behalf) that having a button on command mode - to only show important parameters by default (XYZ, IJK) - so each command is only a couple of lines long. To see all parameters, you would click the button, in order to see all the parameters (as now).

It is possible that such an enhancement could also include adding the icons you get in Summary Mode - to help commands stand out.

We're interested to see how many votes this idea would attract.

It would be extremely helpful to my aging eyes if the line that the cursor is on is highlighted.

KS HUAYU AluTech GmbH - Mr. Löwe

Mr. Löwe would like to have the possibility to search for dimension ID's in PDF's created from PC-DMIS Reporting. Currently he use the default.rtp in rtf format, so that he can search for Dimension ID's. That's important for him, because he has 200-300's of features ad can easly find them by the search function.

But he would prefer to use a report like textonly.rtp, because of the better presentation of of GD&T dimensions. This currently blocked because he cannot search for Dim. Id's.

This can be a usefull function for all report types, textonly either cad reports.

Opition to turn on or off the calibration results from being included in the Report

Probe autocalibrate question from the PC-DMIS user forum.

We can change the movements for Clearance Cube to UseTipVector or Axis but a more useful tool can be UseFeatureVector ( the movements to clearance cube to use the feature vector and to activate from F5. Avoidance moves does the same thing but it will be useful in clearance cube motions).What do you think?

As the Manufacturing Industry heads towards automation and more CMM demand, companies like Boeing are asking for a formal Program Change Control Process such as Siemens Team Center. PC-DMIS should be able to accommodate this need.

When a CMM program is released, it should have an associated revision. When changed/updated for any reason, the prior revision program should be archived, documented change history recorded, and the new revision program released for use.

In 2017 R2 the ability to press Ctrl + Left click to select a feature has been removed. now you have to go the longer way of right clicking and navigating to the 'move to' option.

bring it back !

I'm measuring a cylinder on one of our parts and the max was out of tolerance.  the report was not showing it out of tolerance because it takes the average of the min and max.   the operator did not catch this and the part was shipped to the customer.  is there a was to report the min and max as a out of tolerance feature on the report?
