    I know a couple of guys who would suggest that they export their markups as a CSV and then use Power Query to summarize the information and have the headers setup in Excel… 🙂

    High end finishes for a bar that is going to be behind a door.

    Score 1 for our IT Consultant – he was able to recover everything from a backup! Game on!

    Now that everything is right in the world I’ve gone ahead and exported all of my toolboxes to a folder on our shared drive. By the way, why is it that you have to do this with each one individually rather than having the ability to select them all at once????

    Probably redundant, but at least I know where they are and how to get them when I mess up again! 🙂

    Could you put the script tools into a Tool Chest and then make that Tool Chest “Visible In All Profiles”?

    Great question @Roye !

    I’ve done something similar to @carlwegman – I have an “BSD Standard Items” sheet that I keep pinned to my file access panel. This file includes items that we include in every estimate such as Supervision, Layout, Mobilization, Test Pits, Etc., along with my standard layers. When I’m ready to start a new takeoff I add this sheet to my drawing package and have all of my standard layers ready to go. I don’t delete the sheet though as I want to ensure the standard items end up in my markups list export.

    Seeing the same thing here @Vince

    I’ve had to close everything and restart Revu. Sometimes multiple times in the same day. Very frustrating. Similar to @britger this appears to happen when I have a number of multi-page PDF files open.

    Revu 20.3.20

    Just used this to add bookmarks to a 15 page “scope” document and it worked slick! Will be much easier to find the sections that I’m looking for in the future!🙂

    I did see the steel tube frame, but still don’t see the plate – unless the “05 70 00″ is millwork speak for 1/2” steel 🙂

    Thought that the steel frame was probably because they don’t want it attached to the concrete wall behind it and didn’t want the thickness that a wood frame would require – or perhaps fire resistance – or seismic?

    Understood @Vince – I might not have worded my suggestion well – could the script tools be added to a tool chest instead of a tool bar?

    I think this one of the things I need to improve with my system – consistency. Currently my tool chests are mapped to at least 2, maybe 3, different locations and are generally left unlocked. Saving them to one central location and keeping them locked would be a good first step.

    I also want to get back to creating “Tool Chest” PDFs that will allow me to change the settings for multiple tools at the same time, rather than individually.
