[To...] Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Is it possible to make a dropdown menu for when running a program? I ask because I would like to have the reason for doing the measurement for example. PPA, SPC, change of tools or another option. I would like not to have the operators to type it in by them selfs. Cause it takes both time and it opens op for typing wrong giving me a head ache later on.

[Mi...] Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 yeah. But are you using PiWeb? What version Calypso? Little different in PiWeb as opposed to the old report software. And do you use a drop down in the program when your not using Autorun?

[To...] Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 I am not using Pi-Web. I export all of my results ta table which I import in QDA data collection software. No, I am not. Think I got that explained i a bad way. I would like a dropd down menu wheneber I run a program and It should be like with order number, incremental part number and so on. I would just like to add "Reason for measurement" and the operator would have maybe 4 options to pick.

[Me...] Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Put the dropdown list in your userfields.ini file and set your printout header parameters to force input at start. Look into custom reports and headers. The userfields.ini & userfields.txt files control what shows up in the input box at the start of a program, like incr#, order, etc. You can customize it however you want.Input_Parameters.JPG Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/18548-dropdown-menu-on-autorun/#findComment-104388 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[To...] Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 Thanks a lot. I will try this later today. Is it possible to have a default choice so that if I use option C, it will still start on option A next time I run a program?

[To...] Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 Please sign in to view this quote. Thank you for the reply. Hmm... As happy I am for some of Calypsos features as frustrated I am of some of their mistakes. It is nearly impossible to have them solved.
