Option to Turn Off Results Going Red if Not Measured

Have a way to turn off the results going red if you do not measure them, so you don't have to remeasure the entire part necessarily to turn the other results back to black and not appear out of spec in red. 

Turning skipped features and associated commands red was requested by several Key account customers because they were constantly running into problems where it wasn’t easy for them to determine when operators had skipped commands. The behaviour is documented here: PC-DMIS Help Center - 2023.2 (hexagonmi.com).

This behaviour also helps our PC_DMIS development team when troubleshooting problem reports because they are better able to identify if commands have been skipped.  The behaviour only affects the edit window text, the report colours are unaffected.

So if I were to go back and re-check a feature and it turns the edit screen red, if I pull up the report side there should be no red, obviously if everything is in spec, and the report won't reflect this? I will have to try this, with items we check sometimes re-checking only a certain area comes up, and the report is what matters, so if you are saying the report will not reflect this.

I am trying to file this as a bug since 2022!

See my entry for this in the Idea Center: https://ideacenter.hexagonmi.com/communities/40/topics/1242-choose-dimension-color-in-edit-window-when-elements-arent-executed and casenumber 00890952.

I have been told (recently) that it was because we did the sequence of installing PCDMIS wrong and that's why it doens't 'refresh' properly...

Now I see that others have the same problem and Neill says it's a deliberate function, well... tells me I was fed a story to keep me busy. Again.

Anyway, back to the problem.

Why not let a user decide the color?

The way it is now, OOT in red and not-measured-in-same-run in red, is not really user friendly.

When you have to measure 1 feature again because it has dirt or something and then rerun your report-part of the program, everything exept the dimension of the remeasured feature turns red.

I dont see the logic in this choice of coloríng, sorry.
