is it possible to program/operate using the scaning function (linear/patch/perimeter) with a TP20 probe? And if so does it actually drag the probe or take single points? and is it worth using it for a large surface or should i stick to single points? Thanks.
I played around with it a little bit. I haven't written it off yet as pointless but my first impression is that it was clumsy and harder to manage than individual points. I didn't really see a huge benefit to going stitch scan vs just taking the points and constructing the features other than cleaner code and graphics window. (But I can group the points to clean up the code window)
I'll readily admit though that I'm not an authority on this part of PC-DMIS and there's a good chance I just need to learn it better to see the major benefit.
