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 layers and full PDF functionality (line weight dimming for example). I’m very excited to see how I can work this new feature into my workflows.

In addition to my tool sets being “offline” I was also having issues with launching Dynamic Fill. I reached out to Revu support about this and while they could see the issue in my error logs, they could not identify what was causing the issue. To correct the issue the suggest a complete reinstallation and provided a link to their “cleaner tool” to prepare for the reinstallation.

So in the spirt of the season I performed a bit of a exorcism on my desktop computer to completely remove Revu using the cleaner too. This was followed by a fresh install of Revu 21.6.1. (I’m still not convinced that all the bugs are out of 21.7).

This seams to have fixed both the issue with Dynamic Fill and my tool sets being offline! 😎

Had a great time in DC at #Unbound25 with my friends from #Uchapter2

Thank you all for making the trip, preparing your presentations and for welcoming into the gang!.

Looking forward to #Unbound27! 😎

[David Cutler]

I’ll be there @troy-degroot ! Looking forward to seeing in person many of the folks that I’ve gotten to know through you and the Brainery over the years. 🙂

I’m sure that you both will have great presentations! Remember, unless you tell us, if something doesn’t go perfect you’ll be the only one to know. 😎

I haven’t made the update to 21.7 yet @revu-user – I tend to wait a couple of days to install the updates so that early adopters, like yourself, can find these issues… 🙂

I too have wondered why the count tools don’t show in the recent tools. Might have to ask the Developers at Unbound at the end of the month about that…

As a work around you could right click on a count tool that you are already using and select “resume count”. While this isn’t always convenient if the pervious markup is on a different page in your PDF it does get it done…

[David Cutler]

Thank you for sharing this @Doug McLean

While we don’t have a use for this in our day to day operations it’s always good to know what tools are out there!

Who knows, might even be a Bluebeam Jeopardy response some day… 🙂

[David Cutler]

Thank you for the clarification @Doug McLean

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

[David Cutler]

Flattening after using this tool is a great “best practice” since when you move the content it becomes an image that could be deleted accidentally. Thank you for the tip!

🙂

[David Cutler]

Thank you for the suggestion @lizlarsen . I’ll have to check into this.

My next update is 21.7 – which I don’t want to touch with a 10 ft pole at this point based on what I hearing…

[David Cutler]

I don’t think so @Doug McLean , but I’ll keep my eye out for that one… 🤪

[David Cutler]

Yes. 100% logged in.

I’ve done something similar in the past @revu-user using a “Working Set” tool chest for project specific tools.

One idea that might speed up the extra step of using the format painter would be to filter your markups list for a certain markup – say respread topsoil as one of my tools – and then select all of those markups and make the line thickness/fill color changes once for all of the selected markups. The format painter works well if you have a couple of markups to match, but there are more efficient ways if you are dealing with dozens or hundreds of markups. 🙂

Hopefully Bluebeam issues a 21.7.X update shortly and addresses you other issues….

[David Cutler]

Not at this time @Vince – just a good, old fashioned single file with 25 pages. 😎
