When do you generate your results?

Michael R
Do you have a preference where in your program you create you measured results. I find if I wait till the end of the program it takes longer because I have to go back and identify my features.
So once I've named my datums I'll create the results while the ID's are still fresh in my head.

  • dims with features for 2 reasons.

    (1) If you put all the dims at the end of the program, it actually takes longer to run the program, if the dims are with the feature, they calculate/generate as the machine is moving to the next feature.

    (2) SOMETIMES, if you have to edit the program for whatever reason, and need to re-order the features, SOMETIMES the dimensions get blown away, but if the dim is with the feature, you move both at once, no problem.

    For number 2.
    Depending on versions of PC-DMIS, I use Summary mode drag and drop to move the features or dimensions. Only outside of Groups. I use a script with a short cut key that will move a comment ( ToBookmark ) viewable on the top or bottom of the edit window. While I have my feature selected and hold the left mouse button I then drag and drop to that comment position. I should add this too the Suggested Features.
