I’ve quietly started with a few people on custom toolsets. (Basically I took the stock toolsets from the Revu profile and tweaked them) They all seem to actually like and understand the purpose of doing that.
I’ve also started using the Status Column more, complete with Custom Statuses, and have also introduced a Responsibility Column for anything that we have to have a vendor for.
I think I’m just going to keep putting these into my bids and see if anyone actually notices.
Start doing full markup summaries and leaving little breadcrumbs.Maybe, eventually, someone will ask how I did that.

To err is human,
To REALLY foul things up, requires a computer.
Glad you got it all sorted out

I usually just add a new control point and move that one. Then go back and delete the old control point

A couple of other things you’re going to want to do is to keep the names of your Subject Column in the first table, the same as your Column headings in the second table.
If you need them to be in a specific order, build that order in Excel, load it in as a connection only, then you can do a Reorder Table to list function.
You could also do that report layout using a Pivot Table.

You need to learn how to pivot and unpivot columns.
that’s how you’re going to change that data

What was creating the hyperlink? Is there some kind of margin setting in that particular program that is causing this?
I’d personally just delete them all and run a fresh Batch Hyperlink -

I love it when I get them in a room and I get that ‘ah ha’ moment. Problem is, I’m not getting them in the room.
Once I get them there though…

lol… breathing
Honestly, the problem here goes deeper than one person, although there is more or less one at the center of it.
I did have a whole training program in place, but then Covid hit and we weren’t allowed to do any group training.

you can also add measurement attributes to a count too, look into that a bit as well

you can easily create a Set drawing log, that includes the filepath if you need too.

I’m thinking Bluebeam has a code that they use in the SharePoint integration.
Are they willing to share that code though, that is the question -

The issue is opening a PDF in Revu from a hyperlink in Excel online.
If the filepath is to our server, it opens fine in Revu, but because the filepath contains “SharePoint” it opens in a browser window.

If both my Excel file and my drawings are on the server, it opens fine in Revu, but when everything is on SharePoint, it opens in a browser window.I’m thinking there has to be something because there is an option to Open in Revu if you open directly from SharePoint.
I’ll probably end up emailing the help desk at some point
