Displaying Mouse Coordinates in Screen Counter Text

 If you select Screen Counters mode from the Graphics Modes toolbar, and if the Probe Readouts Setup dialog box has either the Show CAD or Show Part check boxes marked, PC-DMIS will provide a continuous update of the location of your mouse pointer's location in the Probe Readouts window as it moves over the part model. If you move the mouse away from the part over empty space, or if the Screen Counters mode is not active, it displays the last known location of the mouse when over the part.

In previous versions, this information was displayed in the upper right-hand corner of the Graphic Display window. In this new consolidated design, it now appears displayed in the Probe Readouts window.
