Basic Dimension option

gsciola il y a 8 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 0

How about a Basic Dimension option, in the Location Tool Box. That way the basic dimensions don't need to have tolerances.

Angular Length Reporting

SalihaGungor il y a 8 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 1

Image 12Maybe there is an easy way to report it ;if we have either a check box on the location (angle between) dialog window like "from formula" or an easier assignment set will be great.

Here is the code in order to report it :

Allow Max & Min Index of Polar Radius from a scanned feature

Ben Fisher il y a 8 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 2 ans 3

When finding a high point of a linear feature it's possible to use the Maxindex assignment relative to a specific axis. For example "maxindex(scan.x)". This will return the max value in X for that scan.


When scanning radial features and finding a max Polar Radius, one would expect to use "maxindex(scan.PR)" to return the max value for PR in that scan. Thus giving a high point of a radius for example.


This command doesn't work with polar radius.

Possibility to disable automatic highlighting of the feature on which the cursor is located

R. Kempe il y a 1 an dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par Robin Wick il y a 1 an 2

There should be an option to disable automatic highlighting of a feature on which the cursor is placed.

When programming, the large shadow of the highlight can interfere. Especially with single circles this is a disadvantage.

At the moment there is only the possibility to change the color of the highlight.

We should be able to see 2 programs in the scream to be able to compare both

Diego Almeida il y a 2 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par Kingsld1 il y a 2 ans 1

Sometimes we need to compare the programs in what is different.

Show constrained degrees of freedom in the geometric tolerance dialog window

Jacob Cheverie il y a 2 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour il y a 2 ans 4

It would be helpful to see the actively constrained degrees of freedom as the feature control frame is being built in the geometric tolerance dialog window. As an example, assume I have a primary datum plane (normal Z+), a secondary datum cylinder (axis along Z), and a tertiary datum cylinder (axis along Z). Then, as I build my feature control frame, the geometric tolerance dialog window shows me which degrees of freedom become constrained as the images below show:

Compare PC-DMIS programs side by side

Ben Powell il y a 2 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par Jörgen Andersson (vpt se) il y a 2 ans 3

Ability to have two PC-DMIS programs open side by side/one on each monitor to compare and copy and paste between them.

Alternatively, a PC-DMIS clipboard you can use to copy and paste code to and from.

Graphic Analysis View

Sara K il y a 2 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par skatenutsmith il y a 1 an 1

Add the ability to turn off previous graphic analysis views / show one graphic analysis view at a time. Adding graphic analysis views makes the snapshot for the report cluttered and hard to read. We should be able to disable / enable graphic analysis views on dimensions in the snapshot and/or recall a viewset to "reset" the graphic view.

Inspect Slideshow - Have the ability to assign more colors

Bmcdonald il y a 2 ans dans Metrology Software / Inspect 0

It would be good to be able to have more then just Red for failed dimension in the slideshow for inspect. I would like to see a minimum of 3 Colors. Green-passed, Yellow Warning (maybe a settable percentage), and Red Failed.
