For reference: I'm using PC-DMIS 2020 R2 SP8. 

I've been seeing the E modifier next to dimensions in recent drawings released to the ISO 14405-1 specification. When I go to look at the report to see what the two measurements (LP and GN) look like for a shaft, it appears that the lower limit is the only one that has been assigned a modifier (E) when it's clear that the upper limit was evaluated with the LP modifier and the lower limit was evaluated with the GN modifier.

My issue with the report is: it's not explicitly clear which modifier is being used. This isn't an issue for your average metrologist/CMM programmer, but to the outsider, it can be problematic and cause some confusion.

Can we have an update to the report so that when the E modifier is used, the report clearly states which modifier was used to evaluate the upper/lower limits of a shaft/hole?

I can easily work around this by reporting two separate dimensions with the appropriate modifiers for each, but I shouldn't have to do this.

Dear Team,

During the position tolerance callout, we don't have the separate column for position tolerance update . Instead of that every time we modifying in report callout.

In addition to +/- tolerance, if you provide the position tolerance column it would be very useful.

If any other method available in current state, please let me know.

Hello,

we need to have the option to show the vectors of the deviation in our protocol.

It is possible in the graphical window in PC-DMIS, so why isnt it possible in the "CADONLY" protocol e.g.?

Here is a screenshot what I mean:

Thanks in advance

Using 2021.1, an "analysisview" command of a feature control frame that uses the "U Modifier" will ONLY allow us to put on the inspection report an "analysisview" of a BILATERAL tolerance band. 

Please add the capability for us to show the tolerance band as UNEQUAL. 

add a color scheme to the summary view, similar to the edit window color scheme that can be saved and recalled.

Add a feature in the screen for editing a feature (plane, cylinder, etc) to assign it as a datum instead of going through dimension datum screen and/or gd&t dimension. 

Regarding the "To Points" toggle in the auto-feature dialogue box..

Would it be possible to make this toggle work for every type of auto-feature?

Right now, you can only use "To Points" on autocircle, autoplane, and autocylinder. The toggle is "grayed out" for lines, cones, spheres, etc. Adding this functionality would be a good enhancement IMO. 

Thanks for your time,

In the calibration cycle, the possibility that the probe moves to the center of the calibration sphere before the next rotation move. This is useful if using a small CMM. It saves room and the eliminates the chance of a collision with the CMM support legs.
