BUILD 1 - NEW: IMPORT MASTER DATA FROM VTP FILES

You can now import the MASTER tube data from VTP - VTube Project files. This allows for the import of older VTube-LASER project files without changing the measuring center setup for newer versions of VTube-LASER.

BUILD 2 - IMPROVED: REVERSE CALC

In previous versions, when performing REVERSE CALC from bender data to centerline XYZ data, VTube-LASER could not keep the previous part orientation in 3D space when the first leg ran parallel to the Z axis. The part data on the right shows the first leg moving positive only in the Z axis. This is an example of data that could not be handled during reverse calculation. The math engine has been improved to handle this condition.

BUILD 2 - NEW: DATUM REPORT TEMPLATES - MEASURED Distances to MASTER DATUM

Previous versions of VTube could only display DATUM reports with MEASURED-ALIGNED to MEASURED-ALIGNED DATUM or MASTER to MASTER DATUM values. Now VTube-LASER can show DATUM reports with MEASURED-ALIGNED distances to MASTER Datums. To use these new report templates: Download these two new templates: Zip file of Measured to Master Datum Report Templates. Extract them to a folder location that you can find. Load VTube-LASER. Go to Reports. Click on the Templates tab. Click on Import. Find and click on the new Datum templates. Repeat at step 5 for the second template file.

BUILD 2 - IMPROVED: REPORT WINDOW TO FRONT

We've improved the REPORT window's ability to come to the top of the current window.
