Hexagon Measurement SystemsNo matter what Hexagon measurement equipment or software you use, we want to hear your ideas and suggestions on how we can improve.
Thanks for your assistance in helping us shape the future. |

Add values for assignments
It would be great to add .PA, .PR in extensions for hits, arrays (...)in assignments.

Allow theoretical numbers to be locked on individual features
Allow theoretical numbers to be locked on individual features making it possible to prevent them from changing. This would give us a more elegant solution than turning a theoretical number into an expression by dividing by 1.

Create an actual model from a point cloud
I would like actually create surfaces based on a point cloud

Offer a multi-execute capability so you can get it to execute a specified Measurement Routine 'n' times
....like the MultiExecute Wizard can do.

Remaining Travel + Next Action Display for CMM
I suggest adding a “remaining travel” and “next action” display for the 3D CMM, similar to what we have on CNC lathes and milling machines. This would give a clear overview of where the machine will move next, helping to avoid collisions and making it easier to follow what happens during program runs or teaching.
Thanks for considering this!

Slot Point Distribution
It would be good to be able to measure hits along the flats of a round-ended slot, instead of being restricted to the radii on the ends of the slot.

Quick Features - path line graphics
When using Quick Features, Path lines do not display direction, start/end points for Cylinders. Using Auto Features (Cylinders in this case) does. This is a reason for me not to use Quick Features currently but, if these were shown graphically, just like they do for Auto Features, I would be more inclined to use them. (Quick Feature - Cylinder - TOP, Auto Cylinder - BOTTOM)

Python automated Properties/Criteria
I am currently able to automate the majority of our process. However, I am unable to write anything to the properties or criteria. When I check the recorder it says "Toggle Criteria Reporting - cannot translate". When I try to program it anyway it says its read only. We use it to measure the same shape over and over and it would be much easier and less time consuming to be able to modify the criteria and properties automatically.

Blade Reporting / Analysis in Pointcloud Section View
Like Polyworks, have the ability to measure classic Blade Geometry within PC-DMIS COP Sections. Make this functionality native to PC-DMIS CAD++ and not require the use of BLADE module.

There is huge business in the UK alone for Blade inspection using Laser sensors on CMM and on Portable Arms.

BUG: Sometimes the Pop-ups appear in the wrong position (Auto vector Point window)
Hello,
When using multiple monitors, the Auto Vector point window that opens for example disappears (appears in the wrong position somewhere) and is not visible on any of the monitors.
The only problem with this is that although I can close it if I immediately ESC it, d if I click somewhere in the model I am unable to close the Auto Vector window and so I cannot exit the program unless I close it in task manager by ending a task.
I think this might be a bug cause I am experiencing it in 2024.1 and also in 2024.2. It is solved if I reset the user in settings editor, but after a while it comes up again.
It would be great if the windows that open would only appear on valid monitors so if the problem could be solved.
Please register it in the bugs section. Thank you!
