Start program dialog

romeo matkovic 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 2

PCDMIS should have some customisable deafult run program dialog. For general data inputing before measurment starts, like Operator, machine, sample number, reason for measurtment, etc.

Those dialog shoud be changeable with some Scripting editor or throu some ini file.

Have the recent file menu show the last 10 programs executed instead of just the last 4.

Allow theoretical numbers to be locked on individual features

Jay Flint 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 2

Allow theoretical numbers to be locked on individual features making it possible to prevent them from changing. This would give us a more elegant solution than turning a theoretical number into an expression by dividing by 1.

Carry Like Tolerances Forward

Adam 3 months ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated 3 months ago 2

There was a time of programming when I was asked to "Carry Like Tolerances Forward" and I clicked on "Don't ask me again" and since then, I haven't been. There have been multiple occasions since where that feature would be useful but I don't know how to get it back for new programs...

Change the toolbar/user configuration files to something readable

Like title.

I would really like to have the toolbar/user configuration files (toolbar.dat, gbarstate.dat, et al.) to something user readable.

Like XML or JSON. When we "move" the old configuration files between versions/upgrades sometimes they end up with duplicate menu items, sometimes missing a menu item...

Today, there isn't a possibility for the user to add/edit the .dat files. This is possible with XML/JSON so the user can "see" if there is a menu item missing/duplicate. The only thing left to do is to delete the files and start over with setting up the GUI in PC-DMIS, which I find quite cumbersome.
