Plot protocol

[[To...]]

When I use Plot Protocol, I am not able to control which plots are included, regardless of settings in characteristics settings editor.  Am I missing something?

Calypso 7.6.20

I don't know if they changed anything, but i think there is no control within Calypso which plot you want to hide.
Whenever i face some unwanted plots i make a specific template for a program with hidden / deleted plots.

I still don't know why they are making things harder to set - aka mask/mark to hide characteristic.

I am also looking for how hide plot protocols. One way is to change attribute of characteristic K2006 on No. (Hide on). But I need this key on Yes.

Yeah, I am running into the same problem. It doesn't make any sense. Plots only show up on the "protocol" page if I go into the program and turn on "display plots in report". But when I use the "plots" page, it just automatically plots everything that it can.

You can try using the mark and hide check box options. The hide check box is per PiWeb template so it won't hide your standrad report if you turn it on just for the plot protoocol. But the mark option is general so if you need to hide different things on seperate templates you will run into issues.

Characteristics settings editor will not work with the Plotprotocol. It only works with the standard protocol and the exchange row template option.

I am having the opposite issue.

I set "display plots" and they sometimes display and sometimes do not.

Yesterday a Form plot was displayed in the PiWeb report, sometime over night, they quit displaying. "Display Plots" is set to "On" and hasn't been changed.

Then....Then, the plot changes to something we never set them to, like an isometric view or completely off screen when the plot is generated.

This only happens on two CMM's running v2017.
