Two main attributes:

The ability to toggle tolerances off.  (Basic and Reference dimensions)  

The ability to have a second set of dimensional reporting options or several reporting profiles (Dimension Color Settings)

This helps with quality control.  Right now, we either 'open' tolerance or don't report.  There are instances where it is desirable to have values of basics and references with-out it hindering production mentality/reactions.  Often I also output XYZ coordinates for In-Car and zero tolerance them, as the T-value is what's important/desired.

Be able to use Increment Moves with Virtual Machine when executing paths and for collision detection.

I am running PC-DMIS with swedish language setting and thus, the report is also in swedish. However, it would be optimal if I could change the report template language to english - just for the report as we have customers all around the world.

In order to that today, I'd have to either run PC-DMIS in english (all the time) or change language, start PC-DMIS, open my program and print the report.

Would it be possible to add the possibility for the report templates to use a different language (other resources from the .dll's) template only for printing?

To have Legacy Textonly report supporting PC-DMIS Dimensions functionalities, or to have a similar report that is true text report and not just pictures that look like text.

Allow to add multiple characters on a datum definition not only 2.

Finding the "high point" of a feature or scan is a very common measurement task.

In pc-dmis, this is a complex task, that requires an understanding of array indexing, and significant manual entry into a generic feature. It is prone to error, is very time consuming, and for users never exposed to a programming language it's a complete non-starter.

A simple, interface-based point construction method could be added to address these issues. The new method should be based on the DMIS method "CONST/EXTREM". It is very complete, and since pc-dmis imports DMIS code - it only makes sense to have a 1 to1 mapping of the DMIS definition.

How about a Basic Dimension option, in the Location Tool Box. That way the basic dimensions don't need to have tolerances.

Maybe there is an easy way to report it ;if we have either a check box on the location (angle between) dialog window like "from formula" or an easier assignment set will be great.

Here is the code in order to report it :
