All Edges
The all edges feature mode enables you to specify an edge from among the
following points along the length of the gage:
•
All edges detected as a result of the threshold/filter settings.
•
The head of the gage when using the head–to–tail search direction, or the
tail of the gage when using the tail–to–head search direction.
•
The midpoints between adjacent pairs of edges.
•
The center point between the first edge and the last edge.
Figure 7.21 uses a linear gage and the binary gaging mode to illustrate the
potential edges with the all edges feature mode enabled.
