hello I'm new here. I am needing to use this program to find the square footage and the baseboard perimeter of a project that I'm bidding on and I have no idea how to add it to the app or how to make it work. Can somebody please help me?
Do you have a screen shot of what you're trying to accomplish? Might I suggest watching a few videos at Bluebeam University first before you start getting into using the software. It'll help
@HollyTalbot , switch your left side panel to thumbnail views, then right click on each plan you are working with and set the scale. Hopefully they are one of the PRESETs that are typical architectural scale settings, otherwise, you can use the CALIBRATE command (second one in the pic below). Once you have scale set, all these icons will provide measurements and values for your takeoff. Examples are the POLYLINE and the POLYGON that will give area and perimeter.
Follow these links to get started after setting the scale. Area tool: https://support.bluebeam.com/online-help/revu20//Content/RevuHelp/Menus/Tools/Measure/Area--MTV.htm Perimeter tool (Core and above): https://support.bluebeam.com/online-help/revu20/Content/RevuHelp/Menus/Tools/Measure/Perimeter--MTV.htm
The area tool will actually accomplish both. While the Area tool's primary measurement is Area, it gives other dimensions as well.
The Length of an Area markups is actually the Perimeter, plus it also will give you a height and a width.(just remember that the height will always be on the y axis and the width will always be on the x axis)
As you can see, if you set up your markups list properly, you can actually achieve both of your goals with one markup.
Hi, I am trying to figure out the best way to do collaborative P&ID markups with multiple colleagues using Bluebeam. We would like to do real-time collaborative markups of P&ID:s without having to check files in and out and then being able to download one or more files from the session to send to other disciplines, without…
I want to export Text inside bubble from P&ID PDF to excel format so that I can easily inlist all tags to save time.is there any specific way or by scripting in bluebeam revu software?
We have AGTEK users that provide us with material takeoffs, dirt work quantities etc. Is anyone here importing AGTEK material takeoff markups into Bluebeam? Thank you! Here is what google AI thinks the process is…
Heya, How does one define which textbox gets taken over when you define a sequence on a tool? I created 3 groups and created the textboxes in alphabetical order and in different placements. However, the sequencing chose a random textbox to replace the text with "1" on every one. How do I define which of the 3 textboxes…
How can i take-off materials quicker using blue beam. I normally see autocad PDF's. Ive tried exporting the comments but i would need to build a formula. Very time consuming.
how do I filter out only my mark-ups to transfer to another PDF as when I window in the whole document alot of other stuff is highlighted?…. I just want this stuff….
Text shown in screenshot below is a non-standard font (some monospace thing) and is embedded in the page. Would either of these factors prevent AutoMark from correctly identifying contents?
Hi all, my company is in the midst of converting from Adobe Acrobat to Revu, and I wanted to be able to sign documents using the same Digital ID I have used. It seems that Acrobat can only export certificates to FDF or PKCS#7 (pk7) files, and Bluebeam can only import PKCS#12 (pfx) files. Is there a feature within Bluebeam…
I am very new to BlueBeam, I have managed to insert my Professional engineer stamp, I need to insert the date and signature on the stamp, meaning to layover the date and signature on the stamp in a certain area, and all should be visible.
Hi all. I am a relatively new user to Revu(CORE). I am able to edit .pdf's with lines, shapes, lengths, etc. However, I've found out that a pdf (multiple times) that has text that I want to edit in Revu won't allow me to do that. Why can I edit lines, but not text? I'm a little flummoxed because I want to get of Adobe…
