I'd probably also suggest to use Curve results points as well.

Is there an easier way? Unfortunately not at this moment.

We've got the FixAssist. It's amazing how often it can't help.

Hey Marco, Glad you got it working! you should be able to click the number in the top RH corner and either use the mousewheel or change the value to whatever you want. If you want to customize it beyond that, I Included a "Prompt_for_ai.md" - just download / extract the codebase from github, give Codex/Claude code access to that folder, copy the prompt and follow it up by "Id like to change the color legend to ........." give codex/claude some example pictures of what you're looking for. let us know how it goes!

Is there a way to show the fitting method used for a fitting cylinder? I tried creating a custom label but I couldn't find a keyword that exposed the fit method. Let me know if you have a solution for this.

I am not sure what you are getting at. Are you using a result element to calculate something or visually acknowledging the Sigma and Radius values? FYI Many users use a CMM program that reports the Qualifications of probes and setting tolerances on sigma values. I do this, and I chart the sigmas over time to track the condition of each stylus tip using Excel, simple Bell Curve for normal distribution.

As usual, solid advice. I thought the part resembled a Swagelok VCR Gland perhaps something like a "SS-4-VCR-P" (Or A‑Lok, Tylok, etc), I have literally made about half a million of these in my machining career, I do not recall a runout requirement before, but I do know that radius is a critical sealing surface (If it is a VCR Gland).

Are you sure that the templates that PiWeb is using are installed in the correct location and that any paths that PiWeb is writing information to are accessible? Maybe it's trying to write the PDF file to a specific location, and it can't because it's write-protected and/or the location doesn't exist?

Measure "Circle on a Torus" in at least 6 locations (60 degree separation). Since you are using an XXT the initial point pickup will need a reverse over-scan for optimal accuracy (a second circle path that starts where the first ended and go back over the scan to pick up lost point data from stylus normalizing). Depending on size (hard to scale from image), it may be beneficial to constrain the size for optimal fitting. Do this in 6 places minimum with even distribution/spacing. Create a Point > Recall > Select 1 circle. (creates center point) Repeat for each circle scan path you created. Create a circle > Recall points > Select points you just created as center points for torus scans. Apply the runout control to the circle construction you've just created. There are ways you could do this with patterns and indexing as well but for ease of direction, I provided the generic manual steps. Alternatively you can scan around the torus D1 in 4-5 places (full diameter scans at different points on torus) and then create intersection planes to create a circle from feature points in as many places as you prefer without adding cycle time. Each approach has its benefits. One question comes to mind though: Are you sure the torus requires a runout check? This is not standard in most scenarios on a turned component as the end radii are usually clearancing and not sealing surfaces.

I skipped 2023, and went with 2024, as it's supposed to be a true 64 bit software, for more ram access. I had intended on going with 2025, but now not so sure. The simulation I did on 2027 went smoothly, so I have some hope. I did mess around some with 2025, for some reason I had to recreate all my machines from scratch, and put a number of some kind, at the end of the machine name, or I would get some weird error.

???

I wait until most of the complaints have dwindled away before I move to the newest or newer version. We are going to upgrade to v2023 soon from 2016, 2017 and 2022. I am still seeing issues with 2024 and specifically 2025 offline. I rely heavily on the offline working properly. For 2027, fuhgettaboutit 😄

This has always worked best for me.

I tried with a new project and it works! One question: is not possible to use a personal legend bar?

Maybe try to measure "Circle on a torus" in a few places and use runout of each of them? I think I've done it before.

Hi Marcel, Now i'm the one to reply late ☺ But many thanks for the feedback. We're still having the problem. We're not saving our reports from PiWeb, we upload our results as table files *.fet, *.chr, *hdr. These table files are grapped by our internal system. We only use Piweb during creation of our programs. This error only comes when we create new programs, if I run the "tactile_optical_adjustment_and_check_lin_V4.1_C7.4" from Zeiss, the report runs fine without any errors. I work with OI543 with RT-table and dotscan from 2024. The inserted clip below is from the inspection plan and as you wrote the error is listed in this file. Maybe a setting somewhere that needs a minor adjustment?

Ok,it works. Thank you! 👍

Ich weiß nicht, ob das vielleicht was damit zu tun haben könnte (Auszug aus den Hinweisen in den Release Notes): So ganz verstehe ich den Absatz zwar nicht, aber ich poste es hier mal, weil man sowas ja gern überliest.

Then make symmetry line and you should be able to open GD&T ( looks like origin point ) and there is distance, where you can select from options. I usually select "Envelope" it's already show settings ( which is circumscribed or inscribed )

If you need a specific order all you can do is to either add a sort column like Martin decribed or to name your elements with a leading sort number. What we do is to put the drawing's bubble number in front of our measurement names.

Rente oder Ausstieg? 😏

You can sort the table by clicking on the column header of each column. You then get a little symbol in the the header field symbolising the sorting dicrection.

I have two lines, because distance is created with SCS.

You have to use GD&T linear distance. I have no idea what elements you have, but for this you would need to either create symmetry plane from two opposing planes or symmetry line from two opposing lines. Then on that symmetry you can use GD&T dimension, where you can set this. Also don't forget you have UF - united feature
