HIGH CONTRAST THEME

Julian 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

high contrast theme for PC-DMIS. Windows has one, but the tool bar buttons down appear so well.

Also, the EDIT WINDOW FONT colors are not very bright.

What is wrong with this 2020 version?

Ebonnee Nelson 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by DAN_M_413 4 years ago 1

1. Why can't I access the most recent programs?

2. Why can't I edit nominals in the geometric tolerance tab?

I've been using this software for the past 7 years and this is one of the worst versions of the software.  When you did this update, why couldn't you keep everything you had before and just add new things instead of playing with all of the old things?

FIX XACT MEASURE (DATUM SHIFT ERROR)

A SNAPP 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by Jacob Cheverie 4 years ago 1

XACT MEASURE SHOULD UTILIZE THE PCDMIS SIZE FUNCTION WHEN EVALUATING FOR DATUM SHIFT INSTEAD OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE L^2.

WHEN MEASURING A CASTING THAT HAD AN AS CAST DATUM ID DIAMETER THAT WAS 4.4300 +/- .020, THE ACUTAL MEASURED FEATURE WAS OUT OF ROUND AND MEASURED +.0218 AND  -.0235 ON SIZE, BUT WHEN USING THE XACT MEASURE IT CALCULATED AN L^2 (LEAST SQUARES) AT 4.4286 ALLOWING FOR .0186 DATUM SHIFT. WHEN THE DATUM MATING EVELOPE IS LESS THAN THE LOWEST POSSIBLE SIZE YOU DO NOT GET DATUM SHIFT. THIS ERROR NEEDS TO BE FIXED IN ORDER TO FOLLOW ASME Y14.5.

Is there a setting in PC-DMIS that would make only the labels that are in the line of sight visible?

GRB 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

Is there a setting in PC-DMIS that would make only the labels that are in the line of sight visible?

For Example:

If I checked one point on each of the six sides of a cube, then put my screen in ISO view, I would only see the three labels for the points that were on the 3 sides of the cube that were visible to me on the screen. If I rotated the cube around, then the other labels would appear as their respective surfaces appeared and the labels that I originally saw would disappear when their respective surfaces went out of view.

Another way to say this might be that the labels would not show through the model. They would only be visible if they were on the operator side of the model.

Pitch on checking threaded holes

dbarron 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by Kingsld1 4 years ago 2

most threads are right hand threads so why not make pitch direction (+/-) automatic regardless of direction checked (CW/CCW) or add a note next to the pitch box positive for RH thread negative for LH thread
