Bring back the old "Merge" and "Replace" buttons when importing additional cad models
Maybe it's just me but I found it easier to click "merge" or "replace" when importing additional cad models. At some point a few years ago, the wording was changed and the user now has to read the question then answer "yes" or "no."
New Way:
Question: Do you want to merge?
< Yes > = No
<No> = Replace
Old Way:
<Merge> = Merge
<Replace> = Replace
I like the old way. Who's with me on this one?

With the Address Bar gray out you are unable to read the file location when the file address is longer than the Address Bar.
Dialog Window to create Customized Machines and Tables
Dialog Window to completely create Customized Machines and Tables without manually editing a .dat data file.
Collision Detection
Make the Collision Detection button active without first generating path lines. If I must generate path lines before running collision detection why not just make it part of the button click?
Optimize the automatic calibration of optical sensors.
Unfortunately, there is currently no way to create calibration programs such as tactile measurement. Basically, it should be possible to place a calibration object on the device, to approach a manual point and to calibrate the device independently, without a user having to manually approach constantly acknowledged messages or even points. Or even with, since the chromatic white light inferometer can not only be partially calibrated by PCDMIS.
Temperature compensation for part -> use arm temperature
When I want to use temperature compensation for the part I now can either select:
automatic -> doesn't work since I have no part sensor installed (that's the message I get when trying)
manual -> I manually have to insert the part temperature per measurement, very time consuming
Why can't I just use automatically the temperature of the arm, assuming my part is in the same room for some time and has the same temperature? This would be so much easier.
Execution Progress Bar with Iterative Alignments
The Execution Progress Bar with Iterative Alignments will be set to 100 percent when PC-DMIS begins the DCC re-execution from the provide start label. Tested using Measure All Always setting in the Iterative Alignment dialog box (Insert | Alignment | New | Iterative button). When using Inspect the progress indicator percentage within the Measure screen will also show 100 percent at the start of the re-measure of the Iterative Alignment features.
Multiple inputs in comment
I'd like to have an input comment with multiple fields.
Have a check box to activate (section off) the comment with an input field enter how many input field you want.
Currently we have to have a separate comment for Machine station and part serial number.
User parameters
A user parameter window that the programmer can set a value and a keystroke for commonly used functions.
for example, if you are programming a part with holes of varying depths you could set a letter with the parameter for the value desired. So for the .250 you would just type "Q" in the depth area of the auto feature, "W" for .500, "E" for 1.000 and so on. This function is a staple in modeling software.
