How do I break up a previously marked-up project into phases?

SKJLEst · 2025-03-05T17:32:00+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I have a project that needs to be split in 1/2. I already have all mark-up done in the project plans (about 20 pages). Is there a way to automatically divide al pages into phases equally, or do I have to manually divide them page by page? What is the easiest way to break up the project into 2 phases?

Project phasing is usually organized by the architects/designers. Do you have those players on your team?

If so, why have they provided drawings for your purposes that were not phased?

If not, I am wondering if the phasing is as simple as splitting the drawing set, or will there be some sheets that include work from both phases?

Assuming the latter, You could make layers on each sheet for Phase 1 and Phase 2 in order to control which markups are visible. Then you could save as/copy two PDFs for each, Phase 1 and Phase 2. Once you get the markups and sheets organized the way you want them to show, you could delete the unrelated phase layer.

So, I do not think there is an "easy button" for this one.

If you're just trying to break the set down into individual pages, or smaller partial sets with multiple pages in each set, you can use the Document drop-down menu. Go to: Document>Extract Pages, then extract the page or pages that you've selected, individually or in a set.

The way I have split things before is by creating a new column on my Markup List. I usually do this to keep things separated by floor and/or area, just have to filter and then export.

Save before Checking In?
This is a simple question. When I've 'Checked Out' a document in my BB Studio Project and added mark-ups, does it automatically Save when I 'Check In'? Or should I click save first, and then Check In?
