Check.jpg NEW: Unbend the Tube and Attached Components

This is a major new feature that allows you to unbend any bend in any order. (Click on the image on the right to see a closeup screen image of an unbent tube.)

  • Check any "Unbend" checkbox in the LRA grid, then refresh the graphics. The unbending is performed instantly.

  • Unbend the model components associated with the straights. This allows you to view components in their proper orientation in a completely unbent tube.

  • View and copy the unbent XYZ and LRA data in real-time. Use a popup menu to copy the entire grids or portions of the grids to the clipboard.

  • Convert the unbent tube to the main tube memory with bends removed.

  • Unbending always takes into account the tube elongation percentage in Part Setup. This means that tubes will unbend and the straightened arcs will shorten slightly to account for stretch.

Check.jpg ENHANCED: The Path Manager Shows What Kind of Save or Load is Operating

The context of what type of file action is now displayed at the top of the Path Manager to avoid potential confusion.

Check.jpg NEW: Automatic Import Transparency

VTube now automatically sets the transparency of the imported model when it is imported.

The transparency value is controlled in the System Options, Graphic Setup menu.

Check.jpg Other Changes

  • The VTube configuration file location was in "c:\ProgramData\VTube", but this caused issues for some customers with computers using restricted rights. Now it is moved to the "C:\Users\Public\Documents\VTube\Config" folder.

  • The Supravision network engine has been enhanced to handle data files that don't follow the Supravison spec perfectly.

  • We fixed a ball probe measurement issue where VTube would sometimes not always take in single points from the FARO driver. This issue created problems with measuring cut planes too. If you measured cut planes, and still couldn't get the cut plane to work properly, then it was probably due to this issue.
