QUINDOS Basic - Graphical Interface
HEXAGON Software: QUINDOS Basic
Graphical Interface
New, but still familiar
The mass of information makes a good user interface compulsory. The partitioning as well as the size of the QUINDOS graphical interface is freely selectable by the user. Customised layouts can be saved as snapshots for use at a later date.
The program text appears in a modern, multi-colour text editor with spell checker and drag-anddrop functionality. Automatic completion helps to find the correct command syntax, while automatic insert helps to complete a line of code.
Individual commands and parameters can be modified using customized dialogue pages. The dialogues are dynamic and are modified in real time by the user inputs.
Depending on the current command, a selection of icons appropriate to the next command will be presented.
The database browser can be used to access all object types (Elements, coordinate systems, procedures, tools etc.) for viewing or editing. Nothing is hidden from the user.
Error handling has always been a strength of QUINDOS. This has now been improved using error lists and error helps for more transparency
When used in connection with a machine, every point taken is used to recalculate the element and refresh the deviations visual. If a CAD model is not available, the element surface is created using the measured points.
For advanced programming, the experienced user can use the Dialog Editor to create customized input dialogs, utilizing photos, drawings and graphics (a special SVG Editor is integrated into QUINDOS for this purpose). These tools can be used to create a user-specific graphical interface to make the operator’s job easier.
