GD&T CAD & OCR Select feature creations should follow any active default MSE we use for QuickFeatures
Say I bring it a CAD model w/ embedded PMI (GD&T) or use the GD&T select from image option, features that are creating ignore any active MSE (default group) that would work with QuickMeasure. This means, one has to edit the auto feature after the fact. Same seems to be the issue if creating auto features using the toolbar and dialog. They do remember what user last did, but they do not follow the MSE when creating new routines. This also means that items like AutoWrist get ignored. Only workaround I can find is to QuickMeasure create the feature first and then Click/use the GD&T callout. If Assuming I have the correct feature type for the association.
Check that all features are reported.
A way to check to see if you reported measurements on all features measured so you don't forget to report on them.
Reopen a completed run without the physical part present
I would like PC-DMIS to support a replayable measurement result package similar in functionality to ZEISS Calypso’s saved measurement data concept.
The purpose is to reopen a completed run without the physical part present, using stored measured points, constructed features, alignments, and run-specific evaluation data.
PC-DMIS already appears to generate interim or backup data between runs, which suggests an existing mechanism that could potentially be extended into a formal run snapshot / replay file.
This would provide major benefits for offline analysis, troubleshooting, reporting, training, reproducibility, and reduced machine occupation.
Ideally the stored package should include:
-
measured hit points / scan points
-
calculated features
-
active alignment and datum state
-
sensor context
-
timestamp / operator metadata
-
optional CAD link reference
The main goal is not full raw machine logging, but a practical, reopenable measurement dataset that allows re-evaluation without remeasuring the physical part.
Add VISI to the supported CAD formats in Replace Component
I would like to see VISI cad file support added to the Replace Component function in CAD Assembly.

Persistent toolbars and buttons across users
I would like a custom toolbar that can appear on every user's toolbar area by default just like the standard ones. It would be incredibly handy to have a toolbar with custom function buttons that everyone has access to. It would also streamline so many other things including setup and work instructions. Currently, to get that functionality, each user would have to configure their toolbar, which isn't practical for shops with multiple users and skill levels. I would love to say in my work instructions: "press the <setup instructions> button in the toolbar" and know they have that button.
Palette measurement review in Inspect
Measured and theoretical values for multiple palette routines in Inspect are only temporarily saved during execution, but a series of measurements can be saved as a separate file for review in palette measurements.
Copy ABC paste CBA
In the edit window, I would like to be able to copy a set of elements ordered as A-B-C-D and paste them as D-C-B-A.
Suggestion for a filter for laser COP
One filter that I really wish was available for a laser-scan COP is a one that just removes all laser points within x distance of a seam in a solid model. Trying to get a surface profile measurement of a scanned part is inevitably thrown off because the physical part has had the edges smoothed per drawing requirements, but the model had sharp edges so it shows up as an out-of-tolerance condition.
I'd love to have a filter were I can specify a distance, and then either select individual seam lines or just pick "all seams" to filter out these edge points from the COP.
A .015"/.005" break edge requirement means on a .010-profile surface all of the edges will be out of spec, and the measurement will not be an accurate representation of the part.
being able to see the report window (as the part is running) in the inspect application.
Having the ability to see the report window while the report is running or even the edit screen while the program is running in Inspect would help us determine where in the program a fault occurred. All we can see currently (In 5.1) is the CAD, %, and pass/fail screens
