A lot of companies have different measurement routines which are using the same variables and tracefields. If they have for example 100 measurement routines and wants to add a additional tracefield, the have to open all 100 measurement routines and have to add the additional tracefield. This is a lot of work and needs a lot of time. It should be nice if we can simplify this process.

There are already two possibilities:

1. Export variables and tracefields as basic script and recall in measurement routine:

This option works without problems and we can use it. But the problem is here, that we have to do manual adjustments after we create the basic script. Here we have to delete some things. If you do this not very often, it is not very easy to know which parts you have to delete.

One possibility can be, if we mark the commands out of the measurement routine and generate a basic script only with the commands which are marked.

2. Recall a subroutine which includes the variables and tracefields:

Here is the problem, that we have to declare all variables and tracefields in the main routine for first. If we do not do this, we can’t use them in the main routine. Here could be a possibility to set a command, that the variables and tracefields of the subroutine(s) can be used in the main routine without any declaration before.

For sure a third possibility can be, that we implement a complete new function, which we can use to do this. I think this is a really good function which is useful for a lot of customer.

hello

hello i would like the function  i want a print yes or no

and that you can tell that you only get the mistakes a report with mitutoyo this is easy

To my understanding, if you want to "clean up" your edit window, you have to turn off "parameters" and "show hits" individually on every feature.

Can there be an option (Probably under the View menu) to toggle parameters and show-hits ON or OFF for all features?

Add the ability in the distance dimensioning to be able to report the width of an O ring groove between two circles.

We do a lot of multiple diameter tubes that start with a smaller diameter and step up multiple times.  I am currently working on one that has 4 different diameters for each bend.  These tubes are usually constructed of single bends and it would be great to be able to measure the tube against the CAD to make sure we had the rotations correct.

Besides project names it would be nice to search on other terms. Like wallthickness etc

From Anoflex Contitech France (and French CO - Laurent Francou):

Add a RPS alignment, using geometric features, all keeping the Tube coordinates.

today, geometric alignements without CAD cannot keep the tube coordinates according to drawings.

I know I am way out there this time but please hear me out.  Please add a surface type auto feature.  No matter the surface I want to be able to create an adaptive scan similar to an auto plane adaptive scan feature, such as perimeter, free form, or teach path.  For example, (bad example but here it is) I don't necessarily want to create a cylinder on a radius surface I want to create an auto surface feature but I don't want it to be constrained to the cylinder parameters I want it to be able to be treated the same as I would create a plane adaptive scan.  Another example would be irregular surface geometry. The reasoning is I want to be able to go through a part and create auto features instead of generic scan features to report the profile of each surface.  I think it could be a valuable tool.  Thank you!  

Have the ability to pull data from sample hit for constructed features.
