We sometimes use the Markups list to collect additional data from drawings and it can be slightly laborious when…

Hey guys! Got a coworker who's having issues being able to input text into a text based custom column. When he goes through the properties panel it lets him edit the property to his heart's content. The problem is that in his workflow he usually makes those changes through the markups list instead but it suddenly stopped…
Did they remove the ability to organize customs columns by alphabetical order? There use to be a button you could press and it would do it for you automatically but it is gone now. If I press item it will organize it like before but it will not save it. Anyone having the same issue?

My team regularly receives markups from clients that come in two files, one a PDF with a callout such as 'C-001' and then an Excel sheet that will list 'C-001' with test in the adjoining column.

Is it possible to change the columns shown in the tool chest?
Greetings, I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer. Hopefully I can get some help here. Is it possible to overlay and also compare two PDFs?
