HI BB team,
Is there any way we can delete or hide the "comment" column in BB's tool chest. It is not used in our company and takes up needed space when taking off the plans.
MDT, I hear what you are saying, but I have never found a way to hide it. But let's dig a little deeper into what you are trying to do or could possibly do. It is easy to Hide the Comments column in the Toolset by simply dragging the grip across to provide more display area real estate or drag the Comments column closer to the display area. But that then hides the Lable column. I assume you have a need for the Lable column.
If you do not need a Label, that is a simple fix to give the Subject more space and fewer Comments information, but not removed.
Now, let's dig into why you are not using the Comments column. I come from a CAD Management background, so if I can communicate easily with end-users without walking over or jumping on Teams, I will take advantage of that function. In Toolsets, I use the Comments column to describe how to use the Markup in the Toolset. Does everyone read it, It's probably not, but it's there and reduced the number of times they asked me, 'How does this work.'
Good luck with your Toolset.
Good morning, since this issue shows up in multiple posts and I agree with them I would like to add further explanation below.
When performing a take off you want to maximize the plan sheet space you are viewing. Currently if you drag the "grip" to narrow the tool chest display area it slides the comment and label columns with it until they reach their minimum width and then it starts to overlap the subject area leaving your subject area to only +/- 8-12 characters. Then if you go to expand the grip to reveal more characters it first unveils the comment and label columns and by the time the subject column grows in width you've now lost a good section of your entire screen. The two fixes would be 1. ability to hide columns 2. when you drag the grip have it start to cover the label comment columns immediately.
Agreed! Thanks for detailing this issue. the comment column takes up so much real-estate and its pretty much useless.
Actually, I take that back, well at least some of it. I just checked and you can now HIDE the Comment section.
and just slide the column over, and now its GONE:
I also see that you can pretty much hide all columns you want, so this issue is FIXED!
I'm at the latest update, my columns do not collapse as far as you're showing
This remains the narrowest in my case…
I see there was an update 6/6/25, but it seems it is not applied to older versions. I cannot fully hide the column and it is very frustrating to repeatedly minimize as much as I can every time I open tools.
Hello, I’m using bluebeam to plot electrical schematics for projects, I’m just wondering what people are using is there anywhere I can download some? Thanks in advance
Recently my default tools in Bluebeam were randomly removed from my Tool Chest — specifically my most commonly used custom tool set. I’ve rebooted several times with no change. When I open the Tool Chest, my custom tool set is not even listed among the available tool sets. At the same time, there are several tool sets…
We’re currently experiencing problems where some users are unable to log in. After downloading and installing the latest version (21.9), the application opens and proceeds to the sign-in process, but we encounter the following behavior: Revu launches and a white pop-up window appears labeled “login.bluebeam.com” with a…
Why I cannot move the dimension line to fit the dashed line? If I move, the dimension line always goes to pass it ( go to the black line above). This also happens when I use line.
I was happily using the new Offset tool (shortcut 'O') a few weeks ago. I went to use it again today and it seems to be grayed out. Whether I have a markup selected or not, the tool does not seem to work. Tried restarting system, no luck. Was this feature disabled in the latest update? I'm running 21.9, Core Subscription.…
I can't add layers to devices in the tool chest.I right-click on the device and choose to enter a layer, but the next time I right-click, the layer is gone. What am I doing wrong?
お世話になっております。 ユーザー管理画面についてご存じの方がいらっしゃいましたら教えていただきたいのですが、いつからかユーザー管理画面の仕様が変わったようで個人の編集や削除の仕方がわかりません。 個人追加は可能のようですが、編集はExcelで管理する感じになったのでしょうか？ 編集の仕方等の説明書がありましたら共有していただけると幸いです。 よろしくお願いします。
Is there a way to batch hyperlink a range of pages instead of the entire document? I have a 325 page document. Within that document are sets. There is an overall page with area references to that set. That set is page 58-78. I know I could pull the set out and do it, then reinsert. Just wondering if there was an easier way.
Are we ever going to be able to edit a user email address in Org Admin? I know this has been discussed before and was a topic at Unbound last year. I have heard nothing about it since. This may not be a frequent issue, but it has come up several times now with users who have changed their last name. Our organization email…
