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.
Building toolsets in Bluebeam can be a tedious process but is very powerful with custom columns. What industry are you in? I'm in structural steel and we've built out some pretty powerful tools and workflows.
Depends on the Takeoff markup you are using, what Materials are you taking off?
Creating a Tool Set for Each item that needs counting.
Using Ctrl + Shift to Copy and Paste Helps, also Copy Multiple Helps.
Another option is Grouping Objects if Taking off Multiple different Material Types.
After Takeoff is Complete, using a CSV File Export to Excel and consolidate data…
I'm trying to find a quicker way to consolidate the BOM on a isometric drawing that list bolts, gaskets, and etc. I did build take-offs with custom columns. I tried to use excel to extract the data from a OCR PDF Sheet but it will take a lot of time to try to edit and produce formula
I'm in industrial. So, I see a lot of piping iso's, steel and civil drawings. I start building the custom columns and it's working better. My other question will be.
How much data I put in for specs on custom columns can it handle
Generally Speaking, the more you use Bluebeam the quicker and more efficient you'll naturally become at using it however a great place to start is understanding the toolbox functions. I'm in Roofing & Cladding and we have a number of different toolboxes for the various roofing & cladding build-ups we offer as a business. Understanding the full use of the take-off functions is also very beneficial.
I am not able to choose different colors for my layers when I am overlaying more than 8 layers together. All I am seeing is the graded color palatte in revu v21 rather than the default one where we can customize the colors based on the RGB values. Has anyone faced this issue before? Is there any workaround for this to…
How do I ensure my session allows for plan review markups? I cannot sort out how to enable one of my sessions to have both the review and plan review tab.
Small Biz and we have BB Revu 20 still in our conference rooms because it does not require sign-in. I tried putting Revu 21 in one conference room and had it signed in with it's own account, but then there were server side issues and then login was required again. Users were confused and entered their own login for…
Some of the BB marked up PDFs I receive have shading and "draw order" out of whack to the point that I cannot read what's below the block. All of the items should come in like the "12' APPLES" unit, in orange. Any thoughts? The preferred "Order" would be with the shading at the base level and the pasted fixture block above.

Hello!! I have been using Bluebeam for a decent while, and anything I have trouble with I can usually sort out on my own, but I am stumped. We have a set of plans, all of which are images with a peach-coloured background. To save on ink, I need to change them to grayscale, ideally. Please see the attached screenshot. It…
On Windows, some PDF previews appear in my folders sidebar while others do not. It seems like the ones I created show a preview, but the externally generated ones don't. Is there a setting I can change to make all PDFs show a preview?
Has anyone had issues logging into Studio after upgrading to 21.9? I have a team member who can't get logged into Studio but can use everything else. Only thing he's done differently is upgrade. Thanks!
Is there anyway to customize keyboard short cuts for say the highlighter function? I would like to be able to have these for different colors.
Creating PDFS stopped working. Any ideas to fix?
