Status window

Wolle 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 5


For editing complex programs would be a Status window of currently active parameters such as approach path, return path, movement speed and Status Flymodi,  useful

Machine homing button

I wish there were a simple button in PC-DMIS for homing the machine without shutting down

Xact Measure 2nd callout results

bman 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

When using Xact Measure reporting, have the True Position 2nd callout show the hole spread nominal instead of the nominal from the original upper datum scheme.  Currently the nominal and results reflect the upper datum structure causing a lot of confusion out on the shop floor.

Features color change (default options)

Mitja Smrekar 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

Option for feature (measured and constructed) color on graphic display window. I want my points to be black, planes blue, lines green, all others (circle, cones, cylinders...) can be black as well, but can still be set to default color of my choice. I know I can change the color after, but I want it to be set by default.

Angle and Distance for equally spaced feature(like holes)

fcapuano 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

i would create linear or angle dimension for pattern holes or pattern slots.

I would select feature in order to generate equally spaced dimension.

Plus, anche option ti generate Total dimension(Distance between First and last element)

Eg. Selected 7 holes to generate 6 eq.spaced dimension

Nb. Eq.spaced dimension is not a requirement.

Angle Point with radius in-between surfaces

Kingsld1 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

Make it possible to create an angle point  using CAD when there is a radius between the two surfaces.   


This comes up on nearly every molded part I measure and on most sheet metal parts.   


User Interface could be to click on the first surface like it is currently done.   If there is a radius (or empty space) between the two surfaces, press Alt and click on the second surface, then click on Create.  Have the first click define where the angle point is to be taken at.  If there is no radius then just click on Create and process as currently done.

Change the .PRG extension to something else...

anders isaksson 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 3

Partly in jest, partly serious - as all antivirus softwares block the .PRG extension, it would be good if PC-DMIS used something else for its measuring routines (for example .PCD).


This is probably not a big problem for the ordinary user, but it is a great obstacle for us running Support, wasting a lot of time for both the customer and us just trying to get an MR sent.
