Check.jpg NEW: Hard Point 321 PLP (Plane Line Point) Alignment

The new Hard Point alignment feature is available for customers that must perform a 321 PLP alignment. This is a significant addition to VTube-LASER that uses new spinner controls to let you choose any point in any straight - or even type in a custom point to set the alignment.

Check.jpg NEW: "Best Fit - Automatic End Weight Adjustment" Alignment Style

This new style of best fit will automatically adjust the end weights when it senses that the alignment is near the tolerance allowed.

Check.jpg NEW: Special Features Calculator - POLAR Calculations

Right click on any cell in the MASTER XYZ grid, and choose Special Features Calculator to use a calculator that lets you convert calculated polar coordinates on prints when you must convert from an angle/distance to horizontal/vertical Cartesian XYZ values.

Check.jpg NEW: Special Features Calculator - SUM Calculations

Right click on any cell in the MASTER XYZ grid, and choose Special Features Calculator to use a calculator that lets you quickly sum coordinates on prints when you must accumulate Cartesian XYZ values.

Check.jpg NEW: Special Features Calculator - STORE Values

Right click on any cell in the MASTER XYZ grid, and choose Special Features Calculator to store values for copying to other cells in VTube. For example, you could quickly copy a value to the cells below the current cell.

Check.jpg NEW: Added Six New fields in Part Setup

Customers requested several new fields in the Part Setup menu - so we added them:

These new fields are available for the reports templates, and they are saved the VTP project file.

Check.jpg REPAIRED: Insert XYZ Row Anywhere in XYZ Data (LASER and STEP)

Now you can insert an XYZ row after the currently selected row. Right click on the grid, then choose "Insert After Selected Row."

Check.jpg NEW: Automatic Calculation of Default Radius

The default radius is calculated and reset when extracting the centerline from a solid model tube.

Check.jpg REDESIGN: REPORT Menu Redesign

These are the new features in the REPORT menu:

  • Double click on any template to display.
  • Template filenames are now hidden to make a cleaner interface.
  • New templates have been added
  • Large Display Report button moved to the top of the menu

Check.jpg ENHANCED: Report Formatting Updated

The report formatting is updated with larger and bolder tiles.

Check.jpg FIXED: Projection Tolerances Now Change Units Properly

The projection tolerance now handles a change in linear units properly.

Projection tolerances allow VTube to know how precise it must be to qualify a projection intersection as successful. Some models have less precise surfaces - so the tolerance needs to be increased for a successful calculation of centerline.
