    Good morning. Woke up to news that Revu 21.6 was now available. Has anyone installed it yet? Looking forward to some early thoughts from everyone.🙂

    Still trying to figure out what the tool chest enhancements are. I see smaller icons, but can’t figure out what they are talking about with punch key options, multi-select, drag and drop multiple, improved detail.

      Thank goodness they fixed the image markups issue. Now my DND toolchest can start behaving =)

      Broke the new toy already @Vince ? Your IT guy isn’t going to be very happy with you. 🤣

      Thank you for being out on the cutting edge on this so I can hang out and see what happens.

        It turned out to be a dodgy set of drawings @DavidCutler ! However, I did test the stitching out on another set of drawings that I’d already put together with the old method – it still took longer with the new feature and the results weren’t as good.

        The new toolchest features appear to be pretty good though.
        However, I am still trying to sort out an issue that I’ve been having for a few months with My Tools duplicating itself everytime I update and save a profile. One profile currently has 7 duplicate copies of My Tools which is rather frustrating!

          Saw a post on “another site” that indicated that Bluebeam had pulled down Revu 21.6 due to an issue with the licensing and had made 21.5 available again. Might be time to reinstall 21.5 @Vince ….

          I’ve been fighting this one for a while as well. I don’t find bugs in the versions like we used to; my bugs are alive and constantly moving. Basic things work in the morning, but not in the afternoon. If I close BB and open it, it works, but a new bug comes up. I typically have to shut down BB three times during a two-hour class.

            I think we need a “dislike” option for comments like this @troy-degroot !

            Hopefully they will tighten things up if we keep sharing the issues with them.

            Frankly I’m amazed any of this software stuff works. I wouldn’t know where to start… 🙃

    I do like the ability to all but collapse the Comments column.
    Also like the ability to move the numbered Hot Keys

    Haven’t really figured out some of the other ones though.

      I’m with you @Doug McLean – I’ve worked out what one or two of the changes are but the rest is still a mystery. @isaac-harned has mentioned something about sequences changing and you have noted the hot-keys – I haven’t discovered either of those yet.

    I was glad to see on the MCR the other morning that you can turn off the Comments Column completely.

    It was really weird, the first day I had this update, none of the new options seemed to work, but a couple days later I was able to multi-select, change the hot keys, change columns. IDK anymore lol
