I love me some profiles😁. Great tip @George Othitis . I like the custom toolsets tip to complete a 1-2 punch🤛combo 🙌

Did you know that you can change your page from the standard Black to a nice light grey color?

The setting can be found under Revu, Preferences, General, Theme.

So if you want something different, try the Light Theme. It is a real talking point when someone walks by your work station.

Thanks @RJ Palis, we are using the Toolset as a workaround, but we've had staff ask to make their hotkeys default green (hence the look into using a profile).

I supposed one thing I could look at is if the Profile could have "My Tools" set to have the default markups set & saved to green, that might work - at least they would be able to use a hotkey 🤷‍♀️

Did you know that double-clicking a Bluebeam Revu Profile (.bpx file) automatically opens Revu and imports the profile for you?

This is the quickest and easiest way to have a User import a Profile. It is a very low impact for our non-technical friends and co-workers. 😅

It is much better than explaining how to click the upper left Revu button, hover over Profiles, click Manage Profiles, click Import, and then browse to the file location.

This is also a great way to push out company standards, or if you are working with a consultant who wants you to follow their QC standards.

Fun fact: If you are unfamiliar with Profiles, I HIGHLY recommend them. You can create custom Tool Sets (.btx files) along with Custom Symbols and Stamps to distribute to everyone in your company. This helps ensure everyone uses the same tools and procedures and can streamline training in your company.

My background is in CAD Management, in case you couldn't tell 😂

I always recommend this to new users as well. I also recommend that they do this as the last step of any changes they make in the preferences dialog box as the change doesn't seem to stick if you go to another tab after this edit.
