VTube Update History 4.4 - May, 2025

Version 4.4, Build 1833 - May 20, 2025

1 - We fixed the action when pressing the Inspection Gear button for Precision Weight Control.

It now shows the correct menu below.




Version 4.4, Build 1832 - May 19, 2025

1 - We added report tokens to allow Correction-Percentage filtered LRA data from the Bender Setup menu.

Now, these reduced LRA correction values can be shown in reports. The left screens show where the percentages are set in Bender Setup. The right screen displays the unfiltered and the filtered corrections in the same report.


The new tokens to allow this are:

LRACOUNT_BENDSETUPThis token controls the count for the Bender Setup LRA arrays in report templates.
array_length_adjustments_bendersetupThis array token allows you to configure Bender Setup LENGTH adjustments in report rows.
array_rotation_adjustments_bendersetupThis array token allows you to configure Bender Setup ROTATION adjustments in report rows.
array_bend_adjustments_bendersetupThis array token allows you to configure Bender Setup BEND ANGLE adjustments in report rows.


Add this new iteration section to a report template to show this data in a report.

<table class="table_lra">


<tr>
    <th class="th_xyz_index">Bend</th>
    <th class="th_xyz">Length</th>
    <th class="th_xyz">Rotation</th>
    <th class="th_xyz">Angle</th>
</tr>


<vtube_iterate section=LRACOUNT_BENDSETUP>


<tr>
    <td class="td_index"><vtube_val>Array_INDEX</vtube_val></td>
    <td class="td_xyz"><vtube_val>array_length_adjustments_bendersetup</vtube_val></td>
    <td class="td_xyz"><vtube_val>array_rotation_adjustments_bendersetup</vtube_val></td>
    <td class="td_xyz"><vtube_val>array_bend_adjustments_bendersetup</vtube_val></td>
</tr>


</vtube_iterate>
    
</table>


2 - The Correction-Percentage Setup values can be displayed.

LRA Correction- Percentage filtered values are controlled in the Bender Setup menu. The current values can be displayed in any report.


The new tokens to allow this are:

length_correctionpercentage_bendersetupThis token allows you to include the current LENGTH Correction Percentage in reports.
rotation_correctionpercentage_bendersetupThis token allows you to include the current ROTATION Correction Percentage in reports.
bend_correctionpercentage_bendersetupThis token allows you to include the current BEND ANGLE Correction Percentage in reports.


This is a sample report template section that displays the percentages in a report.

<br>
<font class="subtitle">The data below shows the corrections from Bender Setup with the Correction Percentage filter.</font><br>
<font class="subtitle">Percentages: Length, <vtube_val>length_correctionpercentage_bendersetup</vtube_val>%, 
Rotation, <vtube_val>rotation_correctionpercentage_bendersetup</vtube_val>%, 
Bend, <vtube_val>bend_correctionpercentage_bendersetup</vtube_val>%</font><br>
<font class="subtitle">The Rotation corrections are CCW positive.</font><br><br>




Version 4.4, Build 1829 - May 12, 2025

1 - The alignment types have been reordered in the dropdown combo boxes to group the best-fit algorithms first and together.

The new order is:


2 - The Bender correction report templates have been improved to manage paper space better.

Customers who upgrade and want these improved templates can contact michelle.licciardi@advancedtubular.com for instructions on importing the improved templates .



Version 4.4, Build 1827 - May 7, 2025

1 - VTube can now automatically change the project default state when changing measuring devices in the Select Measuring Device menu.

This helps customers who use different measuring devices, each with its own configuration needs, to allow for on-the-fly changes to the Measure Setup.

For example, a Metronor M-Scan needs the LASER turned on by default in the Measure Setup LASER menu. But the Metronor LightPen needs the LASER switched to OFF in the same menu. Owners of the M-Scan will almost always have the LightPen available as an option during measurement in the same project.

So we added this feature to make switching default configurations between different measuring devices quick and easy.

Principles for the New Feature in "Select Measure Device"

2 - We reorganized the point cloud control Probe section to clarify the user interface reference to Point Cloud Bucket numbers.

3 - Progress was made on the Chiyoda EX File Server (not yet released).

(This is scheduled to be released in May of 2025.)


Version 4.4, Build 1825 - May 5, 2025

1 - Now, HTML and CSV report template tags can be any letter case (upper, lower, or mixed).
