We spent hours with hexagon tech support & they did help but some responses were like it's bug we can't do much wait for new version. We originally had 2021 R1 but it was so buggy hexagon support had us switch to 2020 R2. There was some improvement but it's still buggier than 2016. Argument messages, bus issues, programs that ran fine 1 month ago stop dead stuff like that. One super annoying thing is when taking sampling hits pc dmis moves the probe to the center of the hole; if you have a boss in the way you can't use sampling hits. And tech support said there is no way to get around it. 2016 doesn't do that. I'm not at the machine right now to list all problems. We've copied & copy all programs to the shared drive just in case something goes haywire. No we don't use automation besides using readpoints from time to time.
