Description of the "Evaluation" View
F "Start measurement" button: Click on this button to perform a measuring operation, calculate
the measurement results and display the point cloud and measurement results of the currently
selected measuring program in the 3D-View.
G Results display: The measurement results of the currently selected measuring program are dis-
played. Here, you can select which measured values are to be made available later for calcula-
tion, OK/nOK assessment, logging and output (see Chapter 3.16.8).
H Status bar: Status and error messages are displayed in the status bar (see Chapter 8.1).
1 Intersection type: Select the type of intersection to be carried out:
-
Calculating a straight line by intersecting two planes
-
Calculating a point by intersecting a plane with a straight line
The following lists the measuring programs available for the respective input objects:
-
Plane:
 Plane: The relevant plane is used for computing the target object. The following measur-
ing program produces a plane:
 "Plane Fit" measuring program (see Chap. 6.1.3)
-
Straight line:
 Straight line: The relevant straight line is used for for computing the target object. The
following measuring programs produce straight lines:
 "Object Intersection" measuring program (see Chap. 6.2.3)
 "Edge" measuring program (see Chap. 6.1.9)
 Cylinder: The longitudinal axis of the cylinder is used for computing the target object.
The following measuring program produces a cylinder:
 "Cylinder Fit" measuring program (see Chap. 6.1.5)
2 Input data: Use this selection field to select the input objects for the program (see also Chap.
3.16.3). The list of available objects varies depending on the type of intersection.
3 3D-View: The 3D-View displays the input objects (yellow) and the resulting object (orange).
