I created this topic in relation to a similar IDEA topic  "Rotary table calibration - Add multiple levels to sphere measurement".

The Probe Utilities in PC-DMIS for years have defaulted the number of Levels to 2.  This  goes back to the days Manual bridge CMMs were prevalent and people locked axis in Z to go around equator and took a single hit on top of sphere.
For a DCC machine w/ any touch trigger or scanning probe, a 2 level default is not metrologically speaking good practice.

Having all points in the equator; except for 1 at the North Pole of the sphere should no longer be a default for any PC-DMIS CMM, or NC, or Vision installation when using spheres.
That the default be 3 levels minimum is long overdue.

When a feature is named in a way that indicates that it is a datum, have the software automatically create a Datum Definition command.   Alternatively, have a checkbox in feature dialogs for Datum Definition.

I would like to be able to name my alignment when using Quick Align.  Similarly to how I can name features when utilizing the Measurement Strategy Widget.

REMEMBER WHEN THE REPORT WINDOW WAS JUST A FORMAT OF THE PROGRAM, WE WERE ABLE TO UPDATE THENOMINALS AND TOLERANCES FROM THE REPORT... NOW WHEN I SPOT AN INCORRECT TOLERANCE I NEED TO GO SEARCHING IN THE PART PROGRAM.  CAN IT BE MADE SO ANY CHAHGE IN THE REPORT WINDOW UPDATED IN THE PART PROGRAM?

I'd like to have a option to adjust size of rows in new summary mode.

The Find hole parameter settings was not well described in PC-DMIS and should have been corrected years ago for better clarity of the meaning for the setting.
With Summary mode in 2019R1 will show that the second parameter is for the Find Hole. (This view feature in Summary Mode is no longer available in the newer versions.)

Within the Settings dialog window the only value for Check is for distance not for the Find Hole.

Then the Parameter Settings will show Check percent with no description. Leave one thinking that this could be for the Check distance.
As an example Check percentage should have been described as (Check Find Hole percent)

CHECK/1,0.1 (First parameter is for Check Distance and Second parameter is for Check Percent for Find Hole.)

Help Menu:
The Check Distance box defines the distance past the theoretical hit location that the machine continues to search or check for the surface of the part. This distance is after it traverses the Prehit Distance value. The default value is zero.
The Check Percent value determines the percent of the total distance moved when performing a Find Hole operation. Be aware that if you type 1, the value is equal to 100 percent. Thus, 100% would be entered as 1, 25% would be entered as .25, and 10% would be .10.

to créate big reports with new function " capture", i think could be Good idea the possibility to add to annotation in the color mapping more info, not only 3D deviation.

maybe, right click add, nominal, measuered and tolerances, and change also the label by default. 

Subject Ticket 00253352.

PC-DMIS 2020R2 does not recognize a small free-form surface. The element group created is recognized by PC-DMIS as a line and can therefore only be evaluated as a line shape.

In version 2020R1, this free-form surface was still recognized as a surface.

Please ask for correction of this problem.

If a program has part of an assembly being measured for the sake of an alignment and then you need to add a part to measure what you need, or to show deviation before and after assembly. Use code to turn model items on or off as the program is executing.
