6.71 Undocumented Features

[geotek]

There is no reference in the manual on these new features. Please explain how these are used:
In Work Mode, what is Pen Run?
In Edit I see references to "Leftover" what are these commands used for?
In Edit There is "Light Guide Panel" How are these settings used?
In Edit, at the bottom, there is "Clothing Mark". How is this used?

When making new software releases, it is common practice to publish a list of the changes. A new release is not very useful if the user is not informed of the improvements.

Geoteck:

I understand your points. I wish I were the programmer so I can tell you guys what did I do but I'm not. I'm just a "mediator" Believe it or not, I DID ASK every time the programmer got new release. Sometimes I felt I was very frustrated as the "log" should be easy to do with the new release.

Anyway, I'll contact the programmer to find out what are those new feature and will post it here once I got answer.
In the meantime, just use it without it or play around it and post what you found. I can't do the test at this time as I'm still setting my warehouse for the business as we just moved in to a new location. It is a little messy here and machines are not ready for operation yet

Or, you can contact the programmer direct through email: 18175079@qq.com

Does this version have inches available as a measurement system as mentioned in previous posts?

I'm personally a bit hesitant trying new versions since I use my machine every day at my business (especially when it's working fine as is). I think it's really important to at least know the reasons for a new version coming out.

It seems to me that the programmer "Li" change for fixed issue per request. That's why he didn't do all change in the log as the common way we do here. Most software company in US will push out an upgrade patch after certain time but not by per request. You could expect an update in monthly based but it is not the case for the DSP. You can tell that there is Pro and Cons to do "per request". The good thing is that a customer (laser manufacturers in China) can get error fixed quick. The Cons is that no log or too many changes could happne in a week or in a month. Because of this, I didn't release small update as frequent as Li did.

The Imperial system has not implemented even though he promoised me he could do it. I'll discuss with him tonigh see any progress. If anyone use the DSP for production then I'll suggest them to try it on a separated computer even though hardly it comes to any issue from my experience. Nowaday a labtop computer cost less than $500 and I think it is a good investment to protection your business. Or, you can do "multip-boot" if you don't want to spend extra money for a separated system. Windows allow you to create more than one OS per computer and you choose which one to boot up when start up yo PC.
