This was an interesting conversation. I think our current Bluebeam Community shows this diversity of career options pretty well. Bluebeam is certainly NOT a one-trick pony. My dad was a concrete finisher for about 30 years and told me to stay far away from construction. He told me to get a degree and find a good desk job. Well, I got the degree and a good desk job… in the construction industry. I hope he isn't disappointed in me. I actually tried to stay clear. I joined the Army, went to college for about 10 years (only one degree to show for it though), and married a city girl. I thought I'd never need to deal with the trades. Well, I don't recall exactly what got me here (probably the COVID lockdowns), but I couldn't be happier, and Revu is one of my all time favorite programs to work with. As for the Mean Tweets… that was pretty funny. I love when total strangers say things like "this is the worst thing ever 0/10". They give no support to the claim and expect other strangers on the internet to just take their word for it. lol
What a great story. I've been really thinking that we need to get more of these kind of stories into the podcast in the future, I like to hear people's "origin stories". Also I was a bit worried that the mean tweets thing might come off as me not taking feedback seriously. My whole job is bascially listening to people complain about Bluebeam and I want them to know that it IS important to me to understand what's going on and to try to find solutions and fixes. But it was fun to just joke around with Luke, so I think it came off in a light hearted way. Next episode is coming out soon, so stay tuned as they say!
Great to hear Stephanie's and Luke's origin stories. It was quite an entertaining and informative episode to listen and watch. Nice work team!! I had to laugh when Stephanie mentioned doing door takeoffs as this is a big part of my job today being a doors and hardware subcontractor. Looking forward to watching episode 2 :).
I have been having issue with my Bluebeam/Revu that prevents me from carrying on with my work. Sometimes when a file is open and in the middle of working with the file, the following message pops up (see snippet below), which locks me out of continuing the work and forcing me to "End program" and restart Revu again. This…
Does anyone know if there is a quick way (or any way) to do a bulk 'Find & Replace' on a markup? For example, I have x number of yellow widgets on a markup but the specification changes and I need to replace all the yellow ones with red ones instead. I want to be able to tell Revu to find all the yellow widgets, delete…
Hi everyone, I’ve been working with Bluebeam Revu for different construction projects, and while it’s been a great tool overall, I still run into a few challenges that I’d like to improve on. For example, scaling drawings accurately can sometimes be tricky when dimensions aren’t clear, and managing markups across larger…
As I understand it, Revu for iOS will be removed from the App Store at the end of this year. Users are recommended to use Cloud instead, which imo hasn’t caught up with Revu for iOS, yet. Furthermore Revu for iOS could be used by users for editing in Studio Project without a subscription. Will Cloud also support this? I’m…
I would like to know if there is a way to search throughout a file or set to references a detail on a page? In other words, I want to do a reverse search from a fine detail, all the way up the drawings.
In the past month or so, bluebeam has been crashing when editing text boxes. Doesn't always happen, but this is extremely frustrating. It's also been buggy with properties menus disappearing or showing properties for a markup that I didn't select.
Hi All, I have single PDFs of my Arch., Struc. and Civil drawings. I would like to Slip Sheet new revisions of individual sheets into these plans separately and still have access to the previous revision's sheets. Is this best done through Sets or is there another way. Sets seems to be used to combine single PDFs into…
I see that there is a ellipse tool, but is there an actual circle tool? If so, where is it?
So , my question is that i'm noticing that the tools in the toolchest will automaticly rearange themselves in a surtain order. I believe only a few updates back this was not the case or a lot less. I could be mistaken as i,m still a relatively new user. Is it not possible to keep your tool in a surtain order and they dont…
Is there a way to have an option to include the page number as a prefix when selecting a page region for label? Only ask for this because I often will create page labels based on page region but it would be nice to include a method of retaining the page number in the label for extraction as single sheets, the plans are in…
