Bring back the old "Merge" and "Replace" buttons when importing additional cad models

Trevor McLaughlin 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

Maybe it's just me but I found it easier to click "merge" or "replace" when importing additional cad models. At some point a few years ago, the wording was changed and the user now has to read the question then answer "yes" or "no."


New Way:

Question: Do you want to merge?

< Yes > = No

<No> = Replace


Old Way:

<Merge> = Merge

<Replace> = Replace


I like the old way. Who's with me on this one?

Collision Detection

John Vernon 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 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?

Optimize the automatic calibration of optical sensors.

Wolle 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to create calibration programs such as tactile measurement. Basically, it should be possible to place a calibration object on the device, to approach a manual point and to calibrate the device independently, without a user having to manually approach constantly acknowledged messages or even points. Or even with, since the chromatic white light inferometer can not only be partially calibrated by PCDMIS.

Temperature compensation for part -> use arm temperature

Roel 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 12

When I want to use temperature compensation for the part I now can either select:

automatic -> doesn't work since I have no part sensor installed (that's the message I get when trying)

manual -> I manually have to insert the part temperature per measurement, very time consuming


Why can't I just use automatically the temperature of the arm, assuming my part is in the same room for some time and has the same temperature? This would be so much easier.

Execution Progress Bar with Iterative Alignments

davehocum 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

The Execution Progress Bar with Iterative Alignments will be set to 100 percent when PC-DMIS begins the DCC re-execution from the provide start label. Tested using Measure All Always setting in the Iterative Alignment dialog box (Insert | Alignment | New | Iterative button). When using Inspect the progress indicator percentage within the Measure screen will also show 100 percent at the start of the re-measure of the Iterative Alignment features.

Multiple inputs in comment

Bill Kulpa 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 3

I'd like to have an input comment with multiple fields.

Have a check box to activate (section off) the comment with an input field enter how many input field you want.

Currently we have to have a separate comment for Machine station and part serial number.

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

Guillermo 6 years ago in Metrology Software / Inspect updated by neil kay 4 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.
