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.
Is anyone else having issues using Bluebeam Cloud in the field on their iPads? I understand they are discontinuing Revu on iPad, but the features aren't even close. Cloud lacks a lot and makes it almost impossible to use in field. I can't see any layers or choose any layers which is the point. The whole point of this…
I do a good amount of takeoff in bluebeam and noticed an annoying issue after updating to 21.7. It used to be that you could use the CNTRL + Shift keys to do a straight takeoff line (shift key) and avoid any control lines or points on the drawing (CNTRL key) to get to a precise spot on the drawing. After the update, the…
I am changing my laptop, but cant find how to transfer my current licence from existing laptop to new, can anyone assist.
I'm having an issue when I want to custom place digital signature on multiple pages. In the preview window not all the pages are being shown. This leads to not all signature blocks being properly placed. Has anyone experienced this and is there a fix?
Can Bluebeam Connect to Google Drive? I notice that Adobe can connect directly to Google Drive, but I cannot find an option for Bluebeam. I also checked the Google Play Store and did not see Bluebeam listed. Does Bluebeam support direct integration with Google Drive, or is there another method people are using to connect…
I know how to grant permissions from Revu 21 but can I grant studio project permissions from the cloud or app based applications or does it have to be strictly completed through the desktop application of Revu?
Hi everybody, since the installation of Windows11 and the last update Bluebeam, the comma button un the number field is not working anymore. in Excel, Word ect. he's working. Someone an idea
I can no longer copy/paste markups when using latest version 21.7
I'm not sure how long ago this changed, but it was pretty recent…. I used to be able to make a legend from my tool counts per page by selecting the counts to be per the "current" page and then at the begining of the document on the cover page I could create a Master Legend with the Total Counts that had ALL the counts from…
