When I select the measure functions such as length, perimeter and area the background of the drawing turns blue. This makes it very difficult to measure and hides the detail in the drawing. How do I remove the blue background?
I had the same issue - for myself, it was a viewport problem.
Once I deleted them all (they were all untitled) as per your instructions, my measurement tools were back to normal without semi opaque blue screen.
Thanks,
Yes, same here. This is when I discovered some pdfs come with viewports already set up on the whole page. Delete and all is good again..
What version of Revu are you using @Neil Petrie? This issue popped up in Revu 21.7, but appears, base on what my teammates are seeing, to have been addressed in Revu 21.8. You might want to consider installing the update.
Hope this helps. 😎
you MIGHT have a viewport. Go to your measurements panel and clear out all viewports if this is the case. You will see a list in the box about mid screen
I only say that because you said it is turning blue, otherwise go with what @David Cutler said.
Re-reading @Neil Petrie's original question I think you may be right @Doug McLean. Might also be an issue with the document being locked. Seems as if I've come across the "background turning blue" issue a few times where the documents were locked down.
