Hey everyone,

I didn't find anything listed about this so I figured I would put it up. I use 2-3 monitors at a time when using PC-DMIS. I would like the ability to be able to place different parts of PC-DMIS on different monitors when programming and working.

Examples would be:

-Live view on separate monitor

-Report Window on separate monitor

-Edit Window on separate monitor

-CAD View on separate monitor

-Measurement tools in your own locations

-The ability to have that layout,  the size and locations of windows saved for when PC-DMIS is opened next.

Essentially a user could make their PC-DMIS interface setup how they want it when using it whether they use 1,2 or 3 monitors, they could utilize all of them if given the chance.

This sounds like it would be a hard task to change this, but I know it would make a lot of users happy. I think it would be an opportunity to keep some things loaded separately though when loading PC-DMIS and fix certain crashes when too many things are open that are not in use. This would allow users to have only the tools needed for their job open while efficiently switching from task to task and checking their work at the same time without having to find an open window somewhere while utilizing more desktop space for users who like to see more at once.

It would be nice to have PC-DMIS QDAS converter integrated inside PC DMIS, with intuitive K-Fields set-up menu and possibility to export all PC DMIS Dimension functionalities to .DFQ files

If i have to measure 10 same parts, it will be great if there is ability to edit reports from 1 to 10, even if i executed program for each. For now, it's only "View last execute report mode"

Hi! 

A common way of designing in certain fields is to have 2 internal cylinders to cross/pierce eachother. Therefore when choosing to scan these cylinders, having a jump hole feature same or similar to the one existing on plane scans would be of great use, instead of having to program multiple auto circles and/or cylinders. A nice additional feature to add to this would be to be able to choose to either jump by distance or angle, depending on how the part is toleranced. 

Great place to have it would be in the setup window.

Hi Could a traffic light system be implemented to see what level a program is at. currently I would just do this through naming convention of the program but this could end up me having multiple programs that aren't necessary.

Green - Proven, Up-to current revision

Amber - Un-Proven / Revision Change needed

Red - Unproven Program / Quarantined

Add an option to toggle off the "smart calculation" for ending offsets of Cylinders and other auto features.

I suggest adding a “remaining travel” and “next action” display for the 3D CMM, similar to what we have on CNC lathes and milling machines. This would give a clear overview of where the machine will move next, helping to avoid collisions and making it easier to follow what happens during program runs or teaching.

Thanks for considering this!

I like to get the actual selected and executed Miniroutine(s) by automation. A function like GetActiveMiniRoutine() on Part level can be a solution.

When measuring with the optics, it should be possible to superimpose an overlay on the live image.

Similar to a wireframe model or a DXF contour, the lines of the nominal geometries should lie over the camera image.

This allows the operator to visually compare the actual and nominal contours, just like with a projector. Furthermore, the customer wishes to carry out manual measurements in the live view between the nominal and actual contour. Such as distances, angles etc.

Good Morning,

In the home page when I create a new file, I can not save my new file routine on a folder choosing by me.

Beacause I think there is a default folder already defined by PC-DMIS, but it is a folder that is located in an APPdata folder. This means we have to copy to the folder we want.

Can you do an improvement so that I can choose a folder to save my file?

Best Regards
