Here's what I'm trying to do - Display a message, prior to printing results, that says "There are N dimensions out-of-tolerance, do you still want to print the report?" Of course, I could accomplish this by doing a whole lot of computations with expressions, but I'd thought I'd first inquire if PC-DMIS can set a flag, based upon the Dimension command, that I can convert into a counter.
Thank you, grandpaal56, but, being a medical facility, we have to report all features. As it stands now, in Operator Mode we have to stop the program, allow the operator to preview the report window (good or bad), and then either cancel the run if anything os OOT, or proceed to print / export the data.
I was hoping that PC-DMIS would have it's own inherent method of tracking how many "red dimensions" (as they are called around here) are generated by each Dimension command. I could then do some conditional branching based upon that flag being set.
Zeiss Calypso does a good job of turning the icon in the clearly-visible report window red if any characteristic of a dimension is OOT - not quite what I want, but IMHO better than the way PC-DMIS handles this.
