Unfortunately @Jeff.Collins I may have overstated some of the functionality of the “Stitching” feature that is being added. Since my comment above I’ve heard that, at least in the Beta version, that the Stitching feature does not maintain the layers and such – basically it is just automating the process that has been discussed previously…

I am still out here. Thank you for sharing. I’ll have to check it out.

I forgot I posted about this.

its still a keyboard only command, so you have to execute it.

They have told me that this was an overwhelming request from the Beta testers, so it will be going on a Rt. Click menu in 21.8

How are you getting the option to use the wand at the moment – mine does come up occasionally but not really when I want it.

it does.
Its a really cool upgrade

As it stands now @Doug McLean does the Magic Wand capture everything (formatting, custom column data, etc.) on the “copied” tool? I’m cautiously optimistic about this one… 🙂

I was using that wand yesterday on a re-tender I’m currently working on… what a time saver.

I’m glad that the team heard our calls and will be putting it on a Rt. click menu when its released.

I have the stitching feature available, but I get an error every time that I try to use it.

I also have the wand available – sometimes. When I say sometimes, I mean about 5% of the time which is very odd!

I’m not seeing it as a Side Panel.

I was in a webinar yesterday and the Host (Stephanie) had it in the Document Menu directly under the Compare and Overlay headings.
I would love to have to activated because I can see this being used in Architectural as well as Civil.

I still have the version that we were using on the Beta (21.7.0) for the…

The Stitching button is located in the current interface; it’s a side panel that you need to activate. But before you get too excited, I don’t think the tool is ready, and there is no documentation anywhere showing how to use it yet. I very quickly tried to figure it out, but had to move to some other pressing work.

A developer reached out to…

Thank you for the clarification @Doug McLean

I guess I was too excited about the possibilities to be listening carefully… 🙃

Stitching is still in Beta and will probably only be available in MAX.

Still out their @Jeff.Collins ?

Bluebeam must have been reading this discussion @Jeff.Collins

At #UNBOUND25 last week they announce a “stitching tool” that I thought they said is included in Revu 21.7, but I can’t seem to find it yet. Perhaps it is still in the Beta test phase.

Anyway, it is similar to @Vince ‘s manual process, but maintains…

The corner tool is smart, maybe a line tool connecting them would tell you how many 10′ pieces.

Not knowing exactly what @mevans is looking to capture I was thinking more along the lines of a bill of materials type markup workflow. First I’d establish standard scaled custom count tools – say 24″ x 10 FT cable tray, 24″ x 3 FT 90 tray bend, etc that could be placed on a scaled print. End result would be a count of how many of each piece…

I would imagine this could be done with a custom line style, I would have to play with it.

Did you end up working up some custom tools @mevans ? I’ve been using some scaled markups that could perhaps be used to create your cable tray ladders. Depending upon how they are setup you could use them for layout and developing material lists…

Marv, it shouldn’t be too difficult to draw the ladder using the line and rectangle tools, group it and then add to a custom toolset. If that does become too much effort, you can always use the snapshot tool to take what you want from a clean version of the linework or the legend.

Attachment?

OOPS! Thank you.

Not directly civil but it is design and may have civil applications. The attached example is actually a cable ladder tray (could be in a vault or data room as shown here). I’m look for a tool that could have application in may trades, including civil. My question is….. what is best way to put the “ladder” object on a…
