Das ist neu in 2023.3

General:

• Paint & Segment labeling can now be done on extracted ROIs, which is much faster than on the entire volume
• Added an “Intersect" button to the dialogs for ROI creation
• The scaling function for ROIs, which was lost with the conversion of the “Transform” tool to the “Transform” tab, can now be found on the “Select” tab
• Changed the behavior of the “Transform” tab so that it becomes the active tab when you unlock the selected Scene Tree object
• Added the option to render newly created ROIs to the dialogs for ROI creation. The ROI color can be defined in the “Preferences” dialog
• Added the “Automation” tool to the group of default tools for VGSTUDIO MAX and VGMETROLOGY
• Improved the behavior when deleting a huge number of objects
• Improved the workflow for saving modified volume data of many volume objects
   

Coordinate Measurement: 

• New option for the advanced classic surface determination to create two volume components: one for voids, one for material
• More options for the advanced classic and multi-material surface determination to configure up to which size particles and voids should be filtered out
• New “Fixed contours” approach for the surface determination to use existing contours—for example, from an ROI—directly as the volume surface
• The new rendering of tolerance zones will display the nominal value instead of the actual value. Additionally, the tolerance zone will be color-coded in green (OK) or red (not OK) according to its evaluation state
• New option in the “Preferences” dialog to automatically update all dependent CM objects when editing a geometry element
• The storage system of a geometry element is now displayed in its properties dialog
   

Analyses:

• Porosity/inclusion analysis and P 203: the new "Voxel-based” gap calculation mode calculates the shortest distance between adjacent indications
• Improved application responsiveness during calculation of porosity/inclusion analyses
   

CT Reconstruction:

• Added an option that allows you to determine the misalignment correction for CT reconstruction automatically
   

Automation:

• Improved the "Paste object" macro step so that it is now multi-applicable
   

Reporting and Traceability (Integrated Report Editor): 

• Added the option to upload coordinate measurement, porosity/inclusion analysis, and P 203 results to Metrology Reporting on the Nexus platform
• Added font size settings to all layout elements in the integrated report editor
• Improved the 3D camera controls in the report editor
• Extended the supported custom image formats in the report editor to .jpg, .gif, and .svg
• It is now possible to have individual indications displayed in 3D, along with their rule-based 2D images
• Added visual hints when hovering over 3D elements in the report viewer to indicate which element can be interacted with
• Increased the lengths of some info fields in the default report layout to allow for more content to be displayed
• Added some missing “Data quality analysis (ASTM)” settings to the default report layout
   

VGinLINE APPROVER:

• Added support for rule-based images for battery anode overhang analysis
   

Documentation:

• New tutorial "Automating a P 203 Porosity Analysis Workflow"
• New quick start guide “Finding Pores with VGEasyPore“
• New quick start guide “Comparing a Strongly Deformed Part to Its Nominal”
• The following tutorials are now also available in Italian, Spanish, and Russian:
  • Rendering a Volume Object
  • Segmentation—Based on Geometrical Shapes
  • Automation with Macros and Batch Processing
  • VGinLINE—First Steps
  • Segmentation—Based on Gray Values
  • Volume Meshing—First Steps
  • Surface Determination for Multi-Material Data Sets

General:

• Fixed an issue where newly opened ROI dialogs would not initially have the focus
• Fixed an issue in the “Manual scaling” dialog where the decimal places where limited to four digits
• Fixed an issue where in rare cases the "Currently active workspace window" option in the "Save images" dialog would not work correctly
• Fixed an issue where in rare cases a debug.log file was created
• Fixed an issue where the “Result as textured mesh” export would fail in some languages
• Fixed an issue where the title bar behavior was not correct under Linux
   

Coordinate Measurement: 

• Fixed an issue with datum systems created from combined planes, where the determination of the material side could be wrong
• Fixed an issue where dragging dimension lines in the 2D views wouldn't update the tolerance values from an active tolerance table as long as the measured value did not change
• Fixed an issue where using adaptive transformation during CM template import could cause lines to flip their orientation and therefore end up with incorrect results
   

Automation:

• Fixed an issue where the “Log” tab of the “Automation” tool and the “Automation - Advanced” dialog were not in sync
• Fixed an issue where unwanted transformation actions were recorded as a macro step
   

Reporting and Traceability (Integrated Report Editor): 

• Fixed an issue where automatically opening an updated report would not show the correct content
• Fixed an issue where selecting entries in the "Create report" dialog via spacebar would sometimes not work correctly
• Fixed an issue where adding custom images to reports would greatly increase the size of any exported PDFs beyond what would be expected
• Fixed an issue where in rare cases the application could crash if the creation of a report was aborted
   

VGinLINE APPROVER:

• Fixed an issue where the VGinLINE APPROVER would crash if a log file could not be written
