HVAC calcs in bluebeam

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello,

Thought I'd share my method of calculating velocities/pressure drops/etc across ductwork and pipework using Bluebeam. See screenshot attached. Some minor improvements to Bluebeam could take this to the next level:

to be able to move labels with more precision (when you hold shown the shift key you can move labels but they never quite end up where the mouse cursor is)
multi line labels - would be great if "enter" could be added into labels to break lines
line width function of input value - polyline sketch to scale taking formula to set line width would be awesome
copy/paste custom attributes similar to format painter

Thank you,

Adam

Edit/Unlock markups in Studio Sessions

Numbered Lists and Bulleted List
This has been requested many many times in the past by many Revu users. WHY is there STILL no numbered/bulleted list function??
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
