Vision MultiCapture

Sup!?
Running PC-DMIS 2013MR1 SP5
---------------------------------------------
I've got a vision machine (Optiv); I think the process will apply to any Vision system with MultiCapture enabled.
I recently ran into an issue where MultiCaputre would work sporadically, or not at all. Some features would get measured in tandem, and some would not.
It was quite slow!

It seemed that the only way to get it to work was when using Paste with Pattern, but even that didn't give consistent results.

So, I found out that to get it to work you have to "Test" your features first...

For example, I was measuring some lines. I was able to get 4 into the Field of View at the same time; theoretically I would be able to measure all of them at once.
But when I executed all 4, I would measure 2 at the same time, and then one, and then the other one.

However, when I Edited and hit the little "Test" button for each line, and then re-executed all 4, they all measured!
It was interesting. But it worked for me; hope it works for someone else who's had trouble with it in the past.

    From what I've played with since esterday afternoon, methinks I won't have nearly as many issues...
    I have yet to fully test the multicapture, but going through one iteration worked :P

    And to add to your point , I had mine toggled, and it was still basically a 50/50 shot Disappointed
