Predefined view of markup list

Lee Pellegrin

This morning, I read the latest tip and trick post with custom statuses. I edited a status, and then I created a filter which dimed out the markup once it was set. My question is, Is there a way to save a predefined view of the markups list for when I am going through revise and resubmit drawings?

Hello, Lee.

Yes, you can save predefined views of the markup list in Bluebeam Revu, but with some specifics:

You can save custom filters that will preserve your filtering criteria for future use. After setting up your filter configuration (including the one that dims completed markups), you can save it by clicking the "Save Filter" option and giving it a name for easy identification.

To save a filter set: Configure your desired filter using either standard or custom column filters, click the "Saved Filters" icon on the Markups list toolbar, enter a name for the filter set, and click "Save Filter". The saved filter will then be listed in the Saved Filters menu for future use.

See Link Markups List Filters

However, there are some limitations:

• Search filters cannot be saved, only standard and custom column filters
• Custom column filters can only be used on PDFs that have the same custom column (name and type must match)

So while you can't save a complete "view" that includes column arrangements and sorting preferences, you can definitely save your filtering setup for your "revise and resubmit" workflow, which sounds like it addresses your main need.
