VTube-LASER v1.59

Revision 1.59 Back to VTube-LASER

NEW: Help Reference for LASER Mode

Now VTube-LASER has its own help reference.

REPAIR: Mix ball probe and laser measurement

Using ball probe measurements on the end scans and and laser measurements in the cylinder straights now offsets the ball radius point properly in every case.

ENHANCEMENT- Part Name is Used as Filename When Part Name Changes

In previous versions, the part name was used as the filename only if the previous filename was empty. Now - when the part name changes, the part name is used as the initial filename in the Save dialog.

ENHANCED- Linear Units Now Set By Single Large Button

In previous versions, the linear units radio buttons were not reliable in setting the proper state. Plus they were too small to easily press. This version removes these radio buttons and uses an large button with either an M or an I that toggles the state. These buttons can also be localized. The M and I can be changed to other Unicode characters for other languages.

Old Interface: New Interface:

REPAIR- Laser Active Initialization

In previous versions, VTube required the operator to enter Measure Setup at least one time when coming into Laser Mode in order to setup the Laser active mode. This has been corrected in this version. It is no longer necessary to enter measure setup if you know the setup is correct.

Other Changes

The report window now requires an operator to close the window before using any other part of VTube. The print preview window buttons are re-arranged so that they are larger and easier to press. The Print button is moved to the right side of the window. If VTube changes from cylinder fit to centerline projection mode during a measurement, VTube will now always consider the measure a cylinder fit failure.

Changes to VTube-STEP

See VTube-STEP v1.59 for changes to the STEP mode in this version.

Issues with this version fixed in next version

Better end-scan qualification. Detect and remove outlier points.
