### Using the UvScanCutoffFactor Entry

This option is used when importing Inspection Plans through the AIMS DCI. When importing a surface feature, either a UV scan or freeform scan will be created. For square-shaped surfaces, a UV scan will be created. For long, narrow surfaces, a freeform scan will be created. This option determines the cutoff point for when to create a UV or freeform scan.

This option is a positive numeric value whose default value is 3. Larger values will cause UV scans to be favored. Lower values will favor freeform scans.

This value is located in the [AIMS]section of the Settings Editor. See "Setting Advanced Registry Options: Introduction" for information on changing Settings Editor values.
