CMM PC DMIS highlight out-tolerance points

analyzer_t
Hello!
I have measured some data and I wanted to highlight the points that came out "out tolerance" points. When I select whole CAD and click show all ids, it shows some points but not all of them. But I specifically wanted to see the points that came out out-tolerance and look more closely to them, to later on analyze those points. And If you could I wanted to see the moments where the CMM machines put its actual points on the whole measurement. I am doing these by clicking the dimension button and then by searching and clicking the exact point. But it's not convenient.

I will appreciate any help you can provide!
Thank you!!!

  • Another option I find helpful to show just the features that are out of tolerance is to use shortcuts to jump to features and then highlight them in the Graphics Display Window. Here is how that works:
    1. Hide all the features in the graphics display window.
    2. Scroll through the edit window until you see a feature that is out of tolerance.
    3. Put your cursor on the name of the feature being reported.
    4. Press Ctrl+J to jump to that feature in the edit window.
    5. Press Ctrl+Shift+H to highlight the feature in the graphics display window.
    6. Press Alt+J to jump back to the dimension.
    7. Repeat this process to highlight all the features that are out of tolerance.
    This may seem tedious, but I actually do this a lot. It helps that I'm typically just dealing with a handful of out of tolerance features on each part.
    If you find yourself doing this often it can help to get a macro programmable keyboard or mouse to do step 4-6 with a single button/key press.
