VTube-LASER v1.61

Revision 1.61 Back to VTube-LASER

NEW: Floating End Letters

Floating end letters can be switched on to help identify the ends A and B of the tube. Control the state of the labels in the View Control pane on the right side of the screen.

NEW: Can Automatically Expanded or Reduced End A and End B Diameter

If either End A or End B are set to a value of ZERO, then they will be automatically calculated based on the straight measurement adjacent to the end of the tube. The Part Setup on the right is from a measurement of B end tube straight where a 1.130" expansion was measured. End B was set to zero, and VTube automatically filled in the expanded end diameter.

NEW: Automatically Set a ZERO Default Radius to 1.5 Times the Diameter

If VTube discovers a default radius value of ZERO, then it will automatically reset the default radius to 1.5 times the nominal diameter before converting to the measured menu.

Other Changes

The Diameter Measure control was redesigned. The Apply to Nominal Diameter button in the Diameter Measure control now properly transfers diameter data to the Part Setup menu. The Apply to Nominal Radius button in the Radius Measure control now properly transfers radius data to the Part Setup menu. The End B diameter is no longer overwritten by the End A diameter.

Issues with this version fixed in newer versions

The A End and B End OFFSETs other than ZERO caused a problem where end-scans would never be qualified. Fixed in VTube-LASER v1.62
