Display Options

When you measure a geometric item manually, PowerInspect switches to full-screen mode.

Probed points and measurements display in the Feature Probing dialog with the following options.

• Nominals — Display the nominal of each measurement for the item.
• Deviations — Display the calculated deviation from nominal for each measurement.
• Errors — Display the amount by which each measurement exceeds its tolerance.
• Tolerances — Display the upper and lower tolerance band for points, dimensions, angles, and certain unit vectors (such as the axis of a probed cylinder). For profile properties (such as circularity), the Feature Probing dialog displays the maximum tolerance only.
Tip: To change the measurement settings while probing a feature, click in the Feature Probing dialog.

Point-Cloud Options

When you measure a point cloud item, PowerInspect switches to full-screen mode.

The Point Cloud Tool dialog displays using the following options.

• Commit point clouds on pausing — Select the Turn Committing On Pause button by default.
