PolyWorks V12 is now packaged within a single unified MSI file. Plug-ins and the CATIA V5 DLLs are now integrated in the standard MSI file. Therefore, the separate MSI files for plug-ins and CATIA V5 no longer exist.After the release of V12, intermediate V12.0.X versions delivering bug fixes and software enhancements will be packaged within a single executable file. The separate executable files for plug-ins and CATIA V5 no longer exist. The first four menus of IMInspectTM, IMEditTM, IMAlignTM, and IMSurveyTM are now File, Edit, Select, and View. This order is typical to several popular engineering applications.  The File menu has been restructured to offer a common structure to all modules. In each module, only the core functionalities are...

The PolyWorks/Inspector variant differs by requiring that you load the scanned data of your physical part or the nominal MCAD model from which it’s manufactured. An initial best-fit alignment is performed to create a rough alignment. You then use a number of techniques to align it further: as a 321 alignment (where three common points are used to align the two sets), or using geometry references, such as circular features or planes.Once the system has the two datasets aligned, you can see a comparison of points to MCAD data, which is color- mapped to show deviation and adapted to your tolerance requirements. Once you have the view in the state that you want, you then create a SnapShot. This captures...
