Custom Canned Cycles for Automatic Feature Measurement

Introduction

From version 3.6 are present some "Non-Dmis" commands that allow to perform automatic measurement of features following a geometrical path instead being driven by regular PTMEAS/ commands.
The features whom those news cycles applies are:

Circle
Cylinder
Planes

Activating the cycles

The automatic cycles can be set and activated by the measuring panel.
Opening one of the available features, a new icon is present, and this will show a dialog to define the different cycles.

Parameters for Auto Cycle

Circle and Cylinders

For circles and cylinders features are available the following new automatic cycles:

Cycle Name	Description	Image
Pattern Helical Full	Distributes the points according an helical path over 360° per round. The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane) \|\|
Pattern Helical Partial	The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane)
Pattern Section Full	The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane)
Pattern Section Partial	The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane)
Pattern Section Optimized	The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane)
Feature Bounded Section Full	The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane)
Feature Bounded Section Partial	The requested parameter are: Pitch of the helix Number of Sections to the measured Starting Angle of the Helix (Based on Working Plane)
