Give PC-DMIS the ability to store measurement results that can be exported to a custom Excel template. I currently use InspectionXpert software for ballooning drawings and that software allows you to create a custom Excel template by choosing the information that you export in a secondary function of the software.

make clearance cube, clearance offset by offsetting from cad a set amount to avoid contact 

Add the ability to output in AS9102 format

It would be great, if we have the possibility to do the “pallet Run” with Inspect – like Operator Interface. 

Just enter the number of the parts and their offset and let’s go.

If a part does not exist, just uncheck it.

Add the ability to have the Bend Controller send "corrected data" to Tubeshaper and updating the CLRA fields only.  Currently as it is, sending corrected data to Tubeshaper replaces the nominal "LRA", which we want to inspect to.

It would be great if I click on CAD part model than is marked(highlighted) in CAD assembly tree too and reverse: If I click on one item in CAD assembly that will be show in CAD window by other color.

Additionaly the marked CAD item can be hide by "I" ( invisible) button, visible again by "V" and "E" exlusive visible only just this item... ( It work an another software and would be great if here will be works similar :-) )

If you like this suggestion press "vote". Thanks!

similar to opening a word doc or protected pdf  or cad file, where an instance of that file is already open at another pc or workstation, and a warning pops up that it can only be viewed not edited since it is open somewhere else.  This would come in handy when, programmer needs to make edits, but in another facility the routine is open and running at a cmm. Rather than messaging folks or emailing and waiting for a response and someone to physically go verify it is not open anywhere, to just have a warning message pop up instead.

one of the most frequent complaints is about changing nominals. There have been many different things listed to reduce that having to do with F5 settings and how Alignments are created etc, amounting to many things to seek and tie them down so they dont change. Perhaps pcdmis authors consider this a 'feature' but most users consider it the bain of their existence. It makes them HATE using pcdmis. Why not have 1 simple parameter the user can set that permanently locks the nominals of features and moves etc so that they can not change?

Tolerances should be able to be entered separately for each intersection and for each Straight.    The overall tolerance does not always meet the specification,

especially for pipes with holders and connections.

The design of pipes over CAD or measured cylinders should be possible by clicking on the  cylinders and entering the bending radius.             

Currently, this is only possible through the tedious calculation of the intersection points and the rebuilding of a pipe.
