Search
Unchecking the Use Default box allows you to manually set the Conformity Tol-
erance value.
Range Enabled
Enables the use of the manually-set tolerance value.
Tolerance
The maximum distance in calibrated units by which a matched contour can
deviate from either side of its expected position. A value from 1 - 100.
Nominal Rotation
Rotation constrains the rotation range the Locator will search for.
It can specify whether the rotation of a recognized instance must fall within the range set or
be equal to the nominal value set.
When enabled, a nominal value is applied (no rotation is accepted); otherwise, the range is
used.
By default, the Locator finds objects within a range of rotation values between -180 and 180
degrees. Allowable rotation can be restricted by decreasing the range of rotation values. The
rotation range spans counterclockwise from the minimum to the maximum angle.
Use Nominal
When Use Nominal is checked, the Nominal value is applied. Otherwise, the
range set by Maximum and Minimum is used.
If you want to search for an instance at a nominal rotation but need to com-
pute its actual rotation, disable the Use Nominal checkbox and enter a small
range, such as 89 to 91.
Nominal
Search for objects at a specific angle of rotation. Note that, when a nominal
value is used, the Locator does not compute the actual rotation of instances;
instead, the instances are positioned using the Nominal rotation value. Nom-
inal is a value, in degrees, from -180 to +180.
Maximum
A value, in degrees, from -180 to +180.
Minimum
A value, in degrees, from -180 to +180.
