# About This Release

Cognex ViDi 4.1.0 introduces the following new features and enhancements:

- Additional Blue Locate tool enhancements, including the following:

  - New handles on the feature graphic labels to make resizing easier.
  - Select either rectangular or circular feature graphic labels.
  - Display or hide the name of feature graphic labels.
  - Copy and paste feature label graphics, as well as cloning a feature graphic label by clicking on it.
  - Auto-generate the creation of a layout model by selecting features and selecting Create Model.
- Additional configuration options for assigning the GPU mode and memory, along with an auto-save feature and training image cache path, can now be set from the Options dialog, which is available in the Starting Cognex ViDi Suite startup dialog.
- The ViDi Suite GUI has been localized into six languages: French, German, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Spanish. The language can be selected from the Locale drop-down within the Options dialog.

Note:

- The VisionPro, Designer and ViDi software require that a valid Cognex Security Dongle be installed directly to PCs running the software during all phases of operation (programming, processing, training, testing, etc.). Any attempts to temporarily remove, substitute, or share a Cognex Security Dongle may cause your system to operate incorrectly, and may result in the loss of data.

  When ViDi is configured for the Client/Server functionality, and a computer has been configured as a server, the Cognex Security Dongle must be attached to the server, but the client(s) does not need a Cognex Security Dongle.

- Sample code is included with the ViDi 4.1.0 installer. The resources for the sample code (ViDi 4.1 Sample Code Resource.msi), which include images and workspaces, are available for download from the Cognex Support Site.
- For more information about new API functionality in this release, see the Cognex ViDi Suite .NET Library and Cognex ViDi Suite C API help files.
