    Used both the “tool chest search” and the “hide individual markup” features on a takeoff today. Both proved to be valuable timesavers in my workflow! 🙂

    If you really want to blow someone’s mind save your snapshots to a scaled toolchest. You can then drop them as a markup from the tool chest onto drawings that have different scales. When you do this the images automatically match the scale that they are being pasted to.

    There are also great free video lessons available at:

    https://uchapter2.com/bluebeam-training-videos/

    These are a great way to learn “what you didn’t know you didn’t know” about Revu. The fun then begins figuring out how to work the new tips & tricks into your workflows.

    I remember hearing about the new hide individual markup feature @Doug McLean but haven’t tried it yet. Have to put that on my list for today!

      The ability to hide individual markups might be a candidate for a top 10 feature list @Doug McLean !

      As a bonus I like the way they have added a “markups hidden” flag on the screen when you are using the “hide markups” tools.

      Thank you again for mentioning this one! 🙂

    I ran into a similar issue @joser

    Our IT folks were able to restore the directory that contains the toolbox files from a backup of my system. I don’t recall off the top of my head what directory they are in, but I expect one of the others will be along shortly that can point you in the right direction.

    Looking forward @Doug McLean to learn more about how you will use this in your workflow vs. a large monitor/projector attached to a computer.

    Sounds frustrating @Vince !

    Luckily most of the time mine works as I expect it too…

    Multiply is going to be right up there on my list of favorite features…. 🙂

    Unfortunately I don’t think there is any budget for commission on free resources! 🤣

    We basically have 2 teams with 1 person on each team. I try not to talk to myself too much so the “team reviews” are pretty quick with little opportunity to show new tool approaches… 🙂

    I rely on my UChapter2 “team” for sharing of innovative ideas…

    “Above all else, don’t try to be perfect. You’ll make a mistake. Learn from that mistake, and try not to make it a second time.”

    I may have to print that out and hang it on my wall @Doug McLean

    I’m at just under 160 steps in my process @troy-degroot ….

    There is more detailing to be done though… 🙂
