Minimize Report Window - Manual Vision Features

bfire85
I run PC-DMIS in Protected Mode. Usually the report window is open. Is there a way to minimize the report window automatically with a script when the software kicks into a manual vision feature? I only have a few programs that do this.

It would be great to add a script before those features occur to automatically minimize the report window since that sits over the top of the vision and then once those features are done, I can have a script to open the report window back up.

Better yet, PC-DMIS should just do this automatically....Rolling eyes

    Protected mode. I am looking at protected mode, I found there is no way to run F9 marked probes calibration ? What shall we do to run calibration in the protected mode? :?
    Thanks

    There isn't a way unless you program it in to do so at the beginning of the program.

    What about using a double screen ?


  • What about using a double screen ?

    Report Window and CAD/Vision is dedicated to the same screen. Only the Edit Window can be moved to a second monitor.

    Sub Main(state as string)

Dim App As Object
Dim PartProg As Object
Dim RepWin As Object
Set App = CreateObject("Pcdlrn.Application")
Set PartProg = App.ActivePartProgram
Set RepWin = PartProg.ReportWindow

if state = "show" then
RepWin.Visible = True
end if

if state = "noshow" then
RepWin.Visible = False
end if

if state = "" then
if RepWin.Visible = true then
RepWin.Visible = false
elseif RepWin.Visible = false then
RepWin.Visible = true
end if

End Sub


    Save it and call it from your program: "show" as argument should show the report window, "noshow" should close the report window. No argument "should" close it if open and open it if closed.

    So my variable with need to be labeled "state"? 

    ASSIGN/STATE="show"
$$ NO,
SCRIPT HERE
ASSIGN/STATE="noshow"
$$ NO,
SCRIPT HERE
  • No, you call the script with an argument: "show" for showing the report, "noshow" for closing the report.
