Re: BlueBeam Studio - Master User
I agree with @Duane Gingras with the options presented. This would greatly expand the capabilities of the Studio Sessions and provide the flexibility that I have had hundreds of users ask for.
Re: 🗓️ August 2024 Challenge - Custom & Favorite Tool Sets!
WOW, that's a ton of emojis Marco.
I don't have it anymore (replaced computer) but I had made scalable detail items like metal and wood stud sections once. Mostly to learn how but they seemed like a useful tool to make, especially for training examples. I should probably remake them now that I think about it.
Re: Slicer for Layers
Thanks Shanoc, thanks, but I do it the other way around. I save the LAYERs setup instead. However, your method or mine still doesn't give me a button to use as a slicer. I want just want buttons to push.

Re: Fix maximized window overlap
Dell Precision 5570 running windows 10 pro, connected to two monitors through a Dell docking station, set to 2560x1440 (the docking station does not support a resolution higher than that while connected to more than one monitor, they claim that it does but that is a separate headache I'm trying to fix as well) scale is set to 100% on both monitors. There is no change in how Revu acts regardless of the configuration of the listed specs and Revu is the only program on the PC that has this issue.
Re: Mac Support
@Darah The way to get the full features and capabilities of Revu for PC on the Mac would be to run it on an emulator. Boot camp is an option if you still have an Intel processor, but if you have the newer Apple Silicon you would want something like Parallels.
Re: BlueBeam Studio - Master User
@Alan A This is a great idea and would be beneficial. This is a commen problem that our permit techs see.
@ALipinski Very Good suggestion!!!!
Re: BlueBeam Studio - Master User
This would be VERY beneficial, one of the biggest reasons we do not use sessions.
Re: BlueBeam Studio - Master User
Significant amount of time and effort. It is hard to quantify but I know others in my company have the same issue and is a reason in some instances where they decide not to use Bluebeam studio.
For example:
If I want to use a pdf set with markups on Studio I have actually have to upload a duplicate fresh set of drawings to Bluebeam studio with no markups and then transfer the markups across so I can edit them during the studio session.
I have to add additional documents to a studio session rather than amending pages to a current drawing set (which means they are not grouped) or I have to do a 'save as' and remove the original drawing set, amend pages and then reupload the drawing set (and also run into previous example above).
