Problem:

The group function is often used to keep the routine tidy and organized.

But when you have "collapsed" groups in your measurement routine, the search function doesn't show matches inside of them. The user needs to open all groups first to use the search.

This is very time-consuming. Inexperienced users may not know that they have to open the groups first.

Solution:

Add a checkbox to the search function called "Search inside groups" or similar.

When checked, the search function also looks inside groups for matches.

I would like to see an option where we can adjust the distance between multiple rings when checking a radial auto plane. We of course have the option to adjust the size of the rings but, to my knowledge, don't have the option to adjust the distance between.

On initialization of the Optic measuring device, the camera is always zoomed completely on maximum zoom.

This makes it hard to find my piece. I first need to zoom out completely, before I can start. 

For me, I prefer to start with zoom on minimum, but maybe someone likes to start with zoom on maximum.

Can there be an update where we can have that choice?

Allow editing location of dialog boxes from within PCDMIS rather than only from the settings editor. Or at least make a button to bring them to center of screen. EX: operator moved the execution dialog box off the screen by accident, the only way to correct this is to go into the setting editor and manually change the location.

As a programmer I would appreciate more options in the ClearanceCube settings.

We load 3D data into the programs in coordinate systems as we receive them from the customer. This is due to future changes in the 3D data. If the 3D data is not in the "ideal" coordinate system, we have no way to fit the ClearanceCube as we would like.

Here is an example of such a problem:

It is clear that I can hard modify the 3D data to get it into the "ideal" coordinate system, but that would mean doing it every time a customer sends me a new version of the 3D data, and that is not the best way to go.

When changing a datum of a GD&T command from the command-view the subsequent datums get deleted.

This should get improved. So I can change the middle datum without the last being removed.

Example:

I have the datum system |A|B|C| I want to change it to |A|M|C|

The second I change the |B| to an |M| in the command-view the |C| gets deleted and I only get a |A|M|

I would like an option to alphabetize inspection reports.  I typically inspect parts to a ballooned drawing.  I resort to saving all my dimensions until the end of my program and name them BALLOON1, BALLOON2, etc.  The problem is when I have a part with hundreds of balloons, I'm hopping around from alignment to alignment and workplane to workplane. It would save time if I could create the dimensions as I'm creating features so that I'm recalling alignments and switching workplanes less often.
