Help files need to make it clear that the working plane and alignment has to match the vector you want the high point to calculate to.   

Either that or change the high point measurement routine to calculate to the entered/ CAD IJK values regardless of working plane or alignment.  This actually seems more intuitive to me.

Table Navigation Improvement

When using "Tab" inside a table after entering a value, the program does not navigate horizontally in the table.

When using "Enter"  inside a table after entering a value, the program does not navigate vertically in the table.

Entering values in tables should be seamless, allowing the user to move horizontally and vertically across the table with the "Tab" and "Enter" keys, a feature all users are used to with any traditional table program or web interface.

Example:

1. User opens the "Feature Location" window (Figure 1) in order to add a feature location to an existing feature (PLNA for this example).

2. User clicks PLNA on the left side.

3. On the bottom right of the window, user is given a tabulated selection of the parameters they need to choose to include in the feature location. User desires to change the nominal, +tol and -tol of the "X axis".

4. User would click "Nominal" column in the "X" row and enters a value of "5".

5. User presses "Tab", which moves the input selection to the +tol column. User enters a value of "0.4".

6. User presses "Tab", which moves the input selection to the -tol column. User enters a value of "0.2"

7. User presses "Enter" after entering the last value, which moves the input selection to the "Y" row and "Nominal" column.

8. User enters nominal Y value of "10".

9. User presses "Tab", which moves the input selection to the +tol column of the same row.

This feature would greatly speed up entering tabulated values for users. Everyone defaults to trying to use the "Tab" and "Enter" keys inside a table, however they are slowed down when it does not function correctly in PC-DMIS tables. Currently, pressing tab or enter after inputting a value simply refreshes the table and clears your input selection ability. The user must then re-click another cell in order to enter that value.

Note: This "tab" feature works in command mode for tables, so the implementation is half-way there. Please implement this feature in the GUI for tables, as standard users will likely be using this often.

Figure 1 - Sample picture of table being referenced above:

Long executing programs require operator intervention at time.  Most operators will monitor or look at report window to see issues early enough in a routine.  Some Measurement routines may take hour to run.  If the setup is for operator to stop because something looks odd in the report window, that cannot happen now with Inspect as the only feedback I get is percentage of execution.

This is useful for both developing the setup offline from the CMM with a PCDMIS offline license, but also for demos as we have portlocks with many interfaces and options.

Can you add configuration for Offline or Machine execution of Pcdmis.  And if possible a way to pass configuration switches so it will launch pcdmis offline w/ some modules disabled.

For example, my demo lock may have NC enabled.  If I don't do a shortcut w/ the /nc0 switch, PCDMIS comes up as PCDMIS NC instead of CMM.  Same applies to switches like /vision, so I don't get a PCDMIS vision mode.

The main request is adding the configurable option to run online or offline.

The second part of my request is more for our own people at Hexagon (AE's etc.)

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

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

If we add new material in 2017 R1 SP2 and install SP3 all added material lost :-(
