=Revision 1.82.1

VTube can now measure rectangular and square tube shapes with the laser or ball probes.

The laser scanning feature includes edge detection in order to remove the fillet from the plane calculations. In this image, see how VTube detects edge fillets and removes them automatically from the calculation of the planes.

The process and logic automatically calculates the location of the centerline from the true surface data. The nominal width data is not needed to find the centerline.

This change gives more room to the grid of values to display on the screen without scrolling by removing the two buttons from the bottom of the Part Setup menu.

The Connect to Arm feature has been rewritten to make it more robust. It is also now possible to disconnect from the FARO arm at any time using the "Disconnect from Arm" button.
Overbend Calculator is now integrated into VTube. The values are now always updated and transferred back to VTube as they are entered in the Overbend.
Supravision export in STEP mode would send an incorrect wall thickness value. This has been resolved.
