[De...] Posted October 25, 2024 Share Posted October 25, 2024 I have never been asked to provide a plot for surface profile before. That being said, I have done plots for line profile. I don't see an option to plot surface profiles. I have the latest version of Calypso with free form and curve, and I use both when reporting the surface profile as in I take 2d curves and recall the points into a freeform surface. So I guess what I am asking is can I plot a surface profile? If so How do I do it?

[Ma...] Posted October 25, 2024 Share Posted October 25, 2024 For this is only option using CAD view. Or if you need same thing like on curves, then you can recall nominal points from FF into 3d curve. First clear FF from actuals to obtain nominals for curve instead actuals. Then you can recall measured points into curve from FF. This way you can pin deviations directly from protocol. On CAD view you would need to enable evaluation and characteristic for every point to be able to select points. Then after you selected points you have to save that view.

[To...] Posted October 25, 2024 Share Posted October 25, 2024 I normally create a CAD Presentation for Surface Profiles. Select the profile characteristic. Go to CAD > Evaluation. Tick Display at upper left. Set up the view however you want. I like turning on Max/Min with Font size 22 and Gradient. You'll need to play around with magnification and Actual points Presentation. Click Manage Views. Name your view. Click CAD Presentation. This will show up in Characteristics list. Close Evaluation window. Open Multiple Report window. Tick Exchange Row Template. Click Display Plots in Report. Turn ON the CAD Presentation item. Click Monitor icon at top to show current report. Click on Plot to expand to full size for further review.

[De...] Posted October 25, 2024 Author Share Posted October 25, 2024 Please sign in to view this quote. This was not an option for me. The only thing a button in that corner did for me was allow me to turn on or off reporting every point in the scan. I had to follow Martin, And Tom's advice.

The window for CAD Evaluation will allow you to create visual mapping of surfaces. These can be exported into a variety of formats. . . . .

[Ri...] Posted October 28, 2024 Share Posted October 28, 2024 I love the heat maps, I have programs with maybe upwards of 50 maps. It takes the report another 60% or more of the run time to generate the maps for printing.

[Lu...] Posted August 18, 2025 Share Posted August 18, 2025 Hello, I think i have a small bug going on and i just wanted to see if anyone has had it before. Sometimes in the report one of the tolerance frames will be missing (i believe it randomly changes the color of it to white, and then when it takes the photo and puts it into a graph the background is also white so it appears missing). is there any known solution? If not then its alright because the graph is still readable without the frames it just makes it a bit easier to read. Ive attatched 2 photos, where one shows what it should look like and the other shows it missing. Thank you! (im on calypso 2021 btw) what it should look like: what it will randomly look like: 1 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/4528-profile-plots/#findComment-136905 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ri...] Posted August 19, 2025 Share Posted August 19, 2025 Please sign in to view this quote. Shouldn't this work with any protocol selected that is a descendant of "Standard Protocol"? I keep losing the graphics or they just change to some other view that is not saved. I don't know what it will do from day to day or during the day.

[An...] Posted August 20, 2025 Share Posted August 20, 2025 Please sign in to view this quote. This shouldn't be happening. The CAD evaluation essentially just goes to a defined view and takes the same screenshot. Are you on the latest service pack if it is something buggy? I would also make sure your graphics card is up to date and has the correct settings. I would make sure you have Automotion Desk builder compatible on. That is usually a common culprit if anything screwy is happening with CAD. https://portal.zeiss.com/knowledge-base?id=528774 1 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/4528-profile-plots/#findComment-137079 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ma...] Posted August 20, 2025 Share Posted August 20, 2025 Please sign in to view this quote. My version is at my signature. I would post example, but i could not find one in pile of pdfs. Once it's shown, then i believe you have to restart Calypso to correct that. It's not for all at protocol, but it can happen to any image there. I'll try to find an example. Now i am transfering to the latest 2024 Calypso, so i'll watch there also. 1 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/4528-profile-plots/#findComment-137087 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ma...] Posted September 5, 2025 Share Posted September 5, 2025 Please sign in to view this quote. Now i have some screen shots. This is for surface profile - first profile is loaded, second is not and now until restart of Calypso it stays like that.
