Meas. point...Print report.

[lambo]

v4.1
Printer on.
Report window open.

PC-DMIS sends the report to the printer immediately after vector point execution from edit window.

What is the purpose of this function?

What are you talking about printing/The report window print setup/printer

unmark it If you don't want it on. I leave mine off and save to file and then print from there.

No sir.
I did not tell it to print, it does it by itself after measured point.

So you are saying if you go to;

File/printing/report window print setup

That printer is unchecked

Nonononono!
I know this from the manual, if you set print set up box checked, it will dump the report to the printer AFTER YOU EXECUTE A POINT MEASUREMENT (not end of program)this is what PISSDMIS does. I just want to know why? for what application? because it says so in the manual but no explanation. It's not a glitch

It does not print after it excutes a point unless you have put in a print comand after that point. It waits till the program is finished unless that is the only point in the program.

OK.
Think of it as a command offered by PISSDMIS.
When you execute a point it will send the report to the printer. period.
Now, I want to know what is the application for this?

[pniven]

You could highlight the point and a print command with the command after itand don't forget the dimension . Go to file and there is a parcel execute block there. It should work. I am sorry, I thought it was doing it to you. I didn't think you wanted to do it. I am at home now and can not remember exactly the excute command.
