BUILD 1 - NEW: IMPORT ONLY MASTER DATA FROM VTP FILES

You can now import the MASTER tube data from VTP - VTube Project files. This allows for the import of older VTube-LASER project files without changing the measuring center setup for newer versions of VTube-LASER.

Build 1 - NEW: SEARCH AND MOVE IN PATH MANAGER

VTube now lets you search for path names in the Path Manager. It also allows you to move the paths up or down in the lost.

BUILD 2 - IMPROVED: REVERSE CALC

In previous versions, when performing REVERSE CALC from bender data to centerline XYZ data, VTube-LASER could not keep the previous part orientation in 3D space when the first leg ran parallel to the Z axis. The part data on the right shows the first leg moving positive only in the Z axis. This is an example of data that could not be handled during reverse calculation. The math engine has been improved to handle this condition.

BUILD 2 - NEW: DATUM REPORT TEMPLATES - MEASURED Distances to MASTER DATUM

Previous versions of VTube could only display DATUM reports with MEASURED-ALIGNED to MEASURED-ALIGNED DATUM or MASTER to MASTER DATUM values. Now VTube-LASER can show DATUM reports with MEASURED-ALIGNED distances to MASTER Datums. To use these new report templates: Download these two new templates: Zip file of Measured to Master Datum Report Templates. Extract them to a folder location that you can find. Load VTube-LASER. Go to Reports. Click on the Templates tab. Click on Import. Find and click on the new Datum templates. Repeat at step 5 for the second template file.

BUILD 2 - IMPROVED: REPORT WINDOW TO FRONT

We've improved the REPORT window's ability to come to the top of the current window.
