[Me...] Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 good morning I have a base alignment and I am using the best besesystem (). valueA <0005 setting for my base alignment but I would like to use this formula for my secondary alignments the question is either the same formula is used or there is another formula for secondary alignmentsEF465995-547B-4645-92DA-300CB6D9BEAB.jpeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Er...] Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 There are a couple of ways, but generally I would use getActual("name of coordinate sys").valueA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ow...] Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Right click on the alignment and select loop. Use this in the loop break condition. differenceSystem().valueA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Er...] Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Me...] Posted February 26, 2019 Author Share Posted February 26, 2019 in the menu of formulas if this formula appears differencesystem (). valueA I need to look for it well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ow...] Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 The way I understood it is that he want's to loop the 2nd alignment. It's been a long time since I've used it but,I believe the difference system is what I used to loop the 2nd alignment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Th...] Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Wouldn't those both do the same thing? The help guide's entry for differenceSystem (specifically, the wording "characteristics of *an* iterative alignment") leads me to believe that it applies as the break condition for whatever secondary alignment it's set within. If that's the case, using differenceSystem seems safer, as it would minimize the chance of making a typo, or accidentally setting a break condition to be dependent on the returned value of a different, similarly-named alignment.

[Me...] Posted February 26, 2019 Author Share Posted February 26, 2019 What I understand is that I have to create a loop and within the loop find the formula differenceSistem (). valueA <0.005, but I understand that ValueA only applies to base alignment or applies to any alignment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Th...] Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 It is just a variable, like x, y, or z. When used as part of the baseSystem break condition, it reports the calculated difference between the current and "expected" base alignment. However, when used as part of the differenceSystem break condition, it reports the calculated difference of the secondary alignment that break condition is used in.

[Me...] Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 I do not find the differenceSystem formula in the menu, I'll already have all of them and I do not see it. I wrote it manually but it marks me error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Me...] Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 I already know how to run the best fit in a secondary alignment differenceSystem (). valueA <0.005 and make a loop of five repetitions until within my limit 0.005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Er...] Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 You got it right Owen, I was just intrested in why you recommended the syntax differenceSystem(). Its absolutely the standard way, no doubt about that. I just had some other things I tought about, a bit more obscure, and as I said, pure intrest in how you think. 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Me...] Posted March 1, 2019 Author Share Posted March 1, 2019 we have a 4.6 version of calypso, but I can not find the differenceSystem().ValueA function and I can not make the secondary alignments run in a better setting and I tried to generate this current getActual("Alignment1"). valueA <0.005 but it does not work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
