Multiple sequential playlist execution with index counter trace field sequencing.

DSH hace 4 años en Metrology Software / Inspect 0

This appears to be similar to one Lupe added previously.

In lieu of a multi-fixture sequential execution, provide  a means of controlling count and/or prompting for next fixture load.  Also, it would be important for index/counter trace fields to be sequence with fixture/cell.

Change Label Colors

S. Ordelmans hace 4 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

I would like to be able to change the colors, both background and line colors, from the standard PC-DMIS labels.

There is already a possibility to change colors related to the view and other functionalities. Perhaps this menu can include the reporting label colors.

In this menu you could then select the standard PC-DMIS label colors and change them to your company colors.


Currently we are changing every single label manually to adjust them to our company colors (blue lines will be black en the background colors will match our company's colors).

This takes a extremely long time, but with this option mentioned above everyone could change it instantly to their own liking, with the possible added benefit that your reports match your company colors for professionalization.

2021.1__Add unequal tolerance zones for analysis view command

DAN_M_413 hace 4 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS actualizado por Aaron Baldauf hace 4 años 1

Using 2021.1, an "analysisview" command of a feature control frame that uses the "U Modifier" will ONLY allow us to put on the inspection report an "analysisview" of a BILATERAL tolerance band. 


Please add the capability for us to show the tolerance band as UNEQUAL.

Find hole available for concentric cilinder scan (Auto element)

Doeko bv hace 4 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

Within the auto elements of  the circle we have the option find hole with adaptive circle scan. Unfortunately this is not possible for concentric circle scan in the auto element of the cilinder. 


It would be an advantage if the "find hole" option would be available for the concentric circle scan of  the auto-element cilinders.

Pointcloud to CAD alignments

dan brokstad hace 4 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

Often when making a point cloud to CAD alignment on sheet metal, the cloud don't fit (see A.JPG).

This is what I think because of the sheet metal can be wrong shape with some degree so it fit better on the opposite side.

I would like to have a CAD Controls in the alignments window (see B.JPG), so I can choose some CAD surface to fit my points (see C.JPG) or you can say as well like "helping the alignment calculation".

Create a full circle from two or three separate partial circles.

Daniel Pearce hace 4 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS actualizado por Barry Buechner (bfire85) hace 4 años 1

There are times when you can only measure a portion of a circle with a specific probe orientation. It would be great to be able to create a full circle from two or more partial measures circles.

Report Window Print Setup – Output Configuration – Add Report Name configuration

davehocum hace 4 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS actualizado hace 4 años 1

Add Name setting same as the Excel Form Report - Report Settings dialog window to the Report Window Print Setup – Output Configuration dialog window.

Excel Form Report - Report Settings

Name - This option determines a file name based on your selections from a series of lists. The list provides a trace field value to create a name rule. You must select options from a series of lists that supports the desired report mode.

MBD/PMI/GD&T with Vision

Add the ability to select GD&T with vision probes.  The system could use measurement strategies for vision or run something similar to autotune to set lighting for each feature on the first execution.

Paste with pattern dimension names

Kingsld1 hace 5 años en Metrology Software / PC-DMIS actualizado por Krishna Chaitanya Velisetty hace 4 años 6

PC Dmis has the ability to keep feature names and add an index number to the name when using paste with pattern.   Being able to do something similar to Dimension names seems like a logical and useful extension.  Dimension names could then match up to a bubbled print.
