It would be nice to see a cutout feature for spaces. Similar to the way its done with the area measurement.
Hi Adam,
Thanks for your post. How would you use that?
Best, Katie
Katie,
I use spaces when doing estimates for Electrical. For example, I will create a space for an entire parkade level, as well as spaces for individual rooms. When I complete the takeoff, I export to a CSV file and add it to a database that will track $/sf for all these rooms. This gives me the ability to quickly generate budget numbers if needed as well as a good base point for cross checking estimates.
Because I cannot cutout the individual spaces, i have to manipulate the exported names on the CVS file before I can add them to our database.
This is helpful, Adam. Thanks for sharing the additional detail.
Could you use Dynamic fill and have it based on your Spaces to do this?
Carina,
I just tried this, but it has the same issue. It won't leave a cutout, as soon as the dynamic fill wraps fully around a cutout, it fills it as well. I do like the Dynamic Fill feature, but the drawings I get from the engineers often are not drawn in a way where the Dynamic Fill feature could be useful.
I am color coding a set of drawings for scoping purposes, so I am not using measurements. However I can't back out items that are 'islands' within a scope area. Seems like adding an area cutout option would be pretty straightforward.
Please add the ability to allow some users to edit/delete other peoples comments. This can be controlled through permissions. At our organisation when reviewing drawings there is a review manager that consolidates comments before sending them back. This process occurs regardless of if we are using Bluebeam or another tool.…
Add folders for studio sessions to organize the list of recent Studio sessions. Some of our clients utilize one Studio session per deliverable on large projects that have multiple reviewers. It can be quite a task to find the one studio session for a smaller project amidst the rows and rows of studio sessions per…
With more people using bluebeam as a CAD/drawing program. It would be nice if bullet points/numbers points with auto text indent was a feature.
It would be helpful to have an autosave function for PDFs being used in Revu. Currently this does not exist and would be very beneficial.
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.
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…
This has been requested many many times in the past by many Revu users. WHY is there STILL no numbered/bulleted list function??
