Feel like I'm losing my mind. but I save my custom column to profile but every time I bring in a new PDF it removes it. What can be causing this. I have saved my profile and custom multiple times a day
That's a bit odd, but try one thing.
Try saving your Profile after you've saved your custom column layout.
If the file you're opening has had custom columns created in it, that will take priority over your customizations. You'll need to reload the XML of your custom columns export into that PDF.
@Doug McLean if the document @Chuckie Weaver is bringing in already has custom columns doe he need to export his custom column setup from a previous document and then import them into the new document? Seems as if this has come up before?
could be. I always save an XML file of my Custom Column just in case I need to import them into a file.
Hey Guys, thanks for the feedback. I believe the piping isometric drawings for some reason or other this time has custom columns. but I'm about to try it on a different drawing to see what happens
Yea i do the same.
I believe that is what's happening. but I'm about to try a different drawing.
I've run into this before @Chuckie Weaver. I don't know if I should be pleased to see someone else is using custom columns or frustrated because it messes up my workflow… 😎
well, if it pleases you lol. I have beaten my head up against the wall. lol but I actually redefined it to formulas as well. and Bluebeam would remove itself off the screen every time I would save it.
Maybe I should have said "impressed". 😎
Always fun to find someone else who uses Revu beyond the basics. 🤓
Has anyone else had any trouble with the order of custom columns being thrown off at random times? (trying to identify a pattern so I can avoid whatever I might be doing wrong, but seems more like a bug to me).
Yes. i notice when the column set up doesnt match the custom column it self. i usually double checking it every time. I would say if you are moving it around at the bottom. you also need to move it around in the column section itself
I have the same problem. I can add custoim columns only the first time when I make a new profile. After closing and reopening I can add or change the custom columns bug I can not add the the chnanges to the profile.
Good Morning Has anyone successfully imported their take-off from Bluebeam via excel into Trimble Contract Master Estimation software and have you managed to link an item in that take off to your database item?
If you choose an area and set the color, line weight and so on, then click out of measurement you have to then go back and redo all the particulars for that item that you are trying to take off. Can this be remedied? Onscreen allows the user to set a group of items to use repeatedly throughout a set of drawings (color,…
Imagine placing a door symbol and Revu automatically attaching a mini BOQ for leaf, frame, hardware and labor, all rolling up into one smart cost object that updates as you copy or move it.
Am I missing something? I was previously using revu ipad in the field for viewing drawings and scaling plans. I have recently updated to a bluebeam subscription and downloaded the new app on the ipad, I have not been able to figure out how to scale on the ipad. I have been able to do this on the web app on my computer but…
Hi!, I'm a senior technician in an architect office, and I regurlarly do some site surveillance and dificiency reports. I am looking for an app on a tablet to consult plans (pdf format ideally), annotate them with comments (ideally speak-to-text) that will generat a list of comments with a "pin" on the pdf plan localising…
Curious if anyone adds a "time" or "man hours" columns in their markups list when doing takeoff. I have some ideas but unsure if they will actually be useful. For example: 10 LF of footing = 1 man hour. Does anyone have any tips on adding custom columns on their markups for time? I already utilize it for material cost per…
In our new lighting projects, we are tasked with adding barcodes to each lighting fixture in a diagram. When printed, these barcodes can be scanned to control the lighting fixtures. It would be ideal to have an option to generate quick, generic barcodes instead of taking pictures, saving them, and then adding them as JPG…
Our company used bluebeam studio on the USA server before we had access to AU licensing. Now we have all AU licenses logging in to the USA studio server, and it tangles itself every day (worse with azure AVD). USA studio login seems to time out and when I log back in it removes the login to the AU license and logs in a…
Following on from a discussion that I was having with someone the other day, how many of you use a custom profile? And, more importantly from my point of view, how many of you use multiple profiles? I have many profiles - different trades, several for measuring groundworks (civil engineering) alone, etc.. I thought many…
Can someone please tell me why I suddenly can't access my tools or properties of tools in Bluebeam? I am trying to add my signature as I do every day but today all of a sudden, my saved tool set doesn't work. I can import a new signature .png to Bluebeam but it won't let me access the properties of the tool to change the…
