Size Base and Height Base (Calculations Error and Display Wish List)

Issue #249 resolved
Former user created an issue

I just downloaded your program a few days ago and started to play with it by changing the values in the GOST_man_ru.vst file.

I only changed the description, id, size base and height base values (please see the attached test01.vst file)

I have the following concerns:

Bug:

When I choose this test01.vst file when I create a new creation pattern using the standard measurement table the program does not default to the values that I specified for the size base (i.e. 400mm) and height base (i.e. 1700mm). The program defaults to height 1760mm and size 500mm as shown at the bottom left corner and reduces “the calculated values” in the measurement table based on 1760 and 500 and not on the 1700 and 400 values that I specified.

Wish List:

I would like to see the values for description, id, size base and height base displayed somewhere in the Table of Variables window . Placing these values beside the “Hide empty measurements” field would be a good place.

    Did you try read article from Wiki about Measurement file format?

    Also i don't understand your wish. We show description, base size and base height for each measurement. You don't need id value. It is more a hack. The way to have translated descriptions for standard tables.

    Confirm.

    Hi Roman,

    From what I understand the "base size" and "base height" is used to determine the calculated value for each of the individual measurements. All I am suggesting in my "wish list" is that the "description", "base size" and "base height" values from the .vst file should be displayed somewhere.

    Hi Roman,

    If you look at my test01.vst file I would like to see the "400mm", "1700mm" and "Description for test01 file" values that I entered displayed somewhere in the table of measurements window.
