PCM to change all features using "Base Alignment" to another alignment?

[[Ri...]]

Is PCM capable of changing the Alignment of a feature?
If yes, what is the structure?

[[Mi...]]

I don't know about an ordinary pcm command.
but this should work:

// Name of the feature:
featureId ="Plane1"
// name of the Coord-system:
CoordSysId="Coord.-Test"
executeCode("Zeiss.Calypso.WPMeasElementExecute new setLCSToMeasElement: '" + featureId + "' with: '" + CoordSysId + "' move: 0")

"move: 0" transforms the geometry nominals (x,y,z value) into the new Coord.-System
"move: 1" means no transformation 

[[Ri...]]

Is there a way to use the above code that finds all instances of a named alignment in all features?

[[Mi...]]

CoordSysId="Coord.-Test"
constElements=baseSystem().machine.inspection.nominalPart.constructedGeo.dictionary.values
allMeasEl=baseSystem().machine.inspection.allMeasElementNames

for i=1 to constElements.size
 el=getParameterNamed(constElements,i)
  if el.identifier == CoordSysId then
   // all me and cf with CoordSysId
   refs=el.checkReferences
    endif
     next i

// check for feature
for j= 1 to refs.size
 refEl=getParameterNamed(refs,j)
  for k=1 to allMeasEl.size
   if getParameterNamed(allMeasEl,k)==refEl then
    display(refEl)
     endif
      next k
       next j

Nice one Michael, thank you for all the support here.

I would have been surprised if ANYONE at Zeiss would have came up with something this clever.

Probably typical canned response "nope, can't be done", etc.

Cheers Mate !

Clever method. I am consistently impressed with the clever solutions to unique questions presented in the ZEISS Forum. Thank you for your contribution Michael. This type of support and spread of knowledge is a benefit to all and the intent of the Forum

Is there something you'd like to discuss? I find this statement to be generally insulting and disrespectful to myself and my colleagues who provide direct support to you and your colleagues on a regular basis. Did you have something you would like to have myself or my team review for you?

Jeff,

Certainly no hard feeling to you sir, you've been nothing but helpful here.

I actually do have a request in original Req# 8102943763 ; which was cancelled with no response at all. ❓ ❗

I reached out to inquire and told it was a complex PCM/QDAS request and they have sent to Germany.

I had a different meeting involving something else a few days later with our RSM, and he says the request came into him; maybe that's where it's supposed to go ? Doesn't seem like it.

Anyways yes I apologize for a few of my not so satisfying experiences with Zeiss overall I do still prefer Zeiss over most. 🙂

Thank you again for everyone that helps on the forums as well.
