USING HELP

Mitja Smrekar 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 3

With version 2019 the help (F1) is accessible trough the browser. My experience is very bad. The search is slow, opening is slow too. I just can not use it, it is unusable!!! Make it fast and simple like it was before.

Enhance vision probe support - lighting

Kyle Brummans 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 7

Vision Probing is great (for the most part).  However it would be nice to see a smoother transition when programming between two dissimilar machines or even CMM-V.   Problems with settings translating between different style light configurations can pose some strange difficulites.  Mostly settings getting lost or hidden. 


Example:  Right now I have a single tier ring light, my customer has a triple tiered ring light.  I write programs where in sections I turned the ring light off - when the program is transported to their system - it is on.  I am told this is because their setup is different. 


If this were a probing Cmm I would simply select a different module/tip etc and move on - right in the probe toolbox.

Open Template / Program Template Search Path

Kyle Brummans 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 4

Very Simple Idea. \

Add a set search path option for 'Template Programs'. 

Add to the drop down menu under 'Open' ; 'Open Template'. 


This then drives to your set search path for template programs.

Comment Yes / No Auto-continue execution

davehocum 8 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 6

Change the Comment Yes / No Auto-continue execution Default settings to be uncheck (Off). 

Every Time I want to place a Yes / No Comment into the program I have too always uncheck the "Auto-continue execution". If I don't uncheck this check box I will get a Warning message "Enter an integer between 1 and 600" after selecting "OK".

Collision Detection

John Vernon 8 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 4

Make the Collision Detection button active without first generating path lines. If I must generate path lines before running collision detection why not just make it part of the button click?

Could we add to Inspect configuration settings for PCDMIS behavior.  For...

Guillermo 8 years ago in Metrology Software / Inspect updated by neil kay 6 years ago 3

Could we add to Inspect configuration settings for PCDMIS behavior.  

For example, PCDMIS visible/invisible


Also, I am finding that when running PCDMIS under inspect, it is modifying the PCDMIS layout.  I am not sure whether it is Inspect or SlideShow that is doing so yet.  Using Inspect 3.2.  What I can see is that the Edit windows is closed, and all of the toolbars are cramped to the left side.
