@troy-degroot my custom columns are what I need in my .csv export file to import into B2W, our estimating software:

– Item

– Description

– Quantity

– Unit

– Phase

The “Quantity” column has a simple formula that reports the “measurement” value. The other 4 are prepopulated for each custom tool.

You’re closer to figuring it out @Vince than I am. Keep us posted.

Looking forward to learning about what you find @Vince

I’ve had good luck saving PDFs as Word documents and then copying the text I need from there. I can’t say that I’ve ever tried it with a drawing though…

@apssales if it is the “Tool Chest” pane that you are looking to remove the “Comment” column from you could narrow up the pane by hovering your cursor over the joint between the Tool Chest and the document and then left click, hold and drag left. This would work, unless you are looking to see the “Label” column.

Another option, if you have multiple monitors is to “Un-Dock” the Tool chest and move it to another monitor. To do this simply click on the Toolbox icon and drag it somewhere else. You can then close the side panel display completely making the area where you PDF is displayed even larger.

A bonus tip is to un-dock the markup list. This frees up a tremendous amount of space at the bottom of the screen. My standard setup has the markup list on a completely different screen. To do this click on the markup list icon and drag it to another screen.

Interesting question @kbolen16

As I start many of my replies, I’m not very familiar with QR/NFC tags. I wonder though if you could set one up that would open a Dashboard in Revu that would then contain the links to the files that you want people to access. Others on here have significant experience with Dashboards and hopefully will chime in with ideas.

Might also be helpful to know who your target end user is – specifically internal vs external – as there may be security issues and such.

@Doug McLean you could try reaching out to Liz Larsen as I believe she posted recently that she is presenting.

Great solution @TPERRY21 ! Thank you for replying.

I don’t think that the young man knows how to use dynamic fill @Doug McLean so I don’t think that is the issue.

The mystery continues…

I can add control points without issue, but I can’t move them or remove them.

I haven’t tried spinning around in my chair 3 times yet though…🤣

[David Cutler]

We all have to start someplace @Vince

Having someone break trail for you is priceless! Plus they tend to find all of the spider webs and low hanging snakes…😎

[David Cutler]

What are these “automated functions to import excel to quickly create tool symbols” that you speak of @troy-degroot ? This sounds interesting….

[David Cutler]

I’ll preface this by saying that I don’t have experience setting up/updating links.

Are links classified as markups? If so, I wonder if you could display the link values in a column on the markup list. You then might be able to change them as a group?

[David Cutler]

I usually find the answer to my questions about 5 minutes after I post them @Doug McLean 😎

I keep posting them though so others can learn. Thank you for posting your solution!

[David Cutler]

Always good to start with the end in mind @Doug McLean

Seems as if I’ve heard someone say that before…😎

@Roye it appears that there are two options to reply:

1. The “reply” button at the start of the thread

2. The “reply” button that pops up when you hover over a reply. This is what I used for this reply so it appears “indented”.

I hadn’t noticed this myself on other replies that I’ve made. Thank you for mentioning it!
