Measuring Points


Recommended Posts

Morning all,

I have a few programs where, when I evaluate the measuring points it will only generate 30% of the characteristics, the rest are greyed out like they have never been checked. I can not work out the solution. Furthermore, I really need this to be working OK, as we do a lot of simulation and investigation based on previous data. We use Calypso 5.4 and programs are on a network drive. Any suggestions please ?

If you want to see what feature names you have measured points for in each data set, you can. Within the "idmeaspoints" folder of the plan, there is a .zmp file for each run. If you change the extension to .zip, you can open it as a normal .zip file. The contents will be an extensionless file for each feature for which points were collected in that run. (Basically, they're tab-delimited .csv's of the ball-center points and the calibration data for the styli used in a kind of funky layout.) The size of each file will depend on how many points were collected.

Oh, and don't forget to change the extension back to .zmp before trying again to load the points in Calypso. 😃

Oh, and all of this is assuming that the points were saved by setting Measuring Points to "On" in Resources>Results to File...

Morning.
I found the problem.

I use ø in my features name and inside .zmp files instead of ø somehow they have been changed to O. Once I change them in my program to O I can see the data. This is ridiculous anyway. I am wondering if it's like that because of old Calypso 5.4
Do you have the same issue with the latest software too ?

Yeah, the good 'ol diameter symbol. I used to do that, until I realized how much they screwed things up. I would do exactly what you said about replacing them with O in the program. And I would recommend you ditch the practice of using the symbol in feature names, altogether.
