    Other than here, Liz, and a few others, it doesn’t hurt to look at Bluebeam University either.
    Its now included with your Revu 21 subscription, so there really is no excuse to not use it.
    The tutorials are basic, but they’re ok. Have a few folks jump into the MCR as well.

    The best thing to do though, is just get in and get your hands dirty. Learn the interface. Learn what each panel does, learn what the various tools do.

    This is a software that while its very intuitive, you still have to dig in and understand all the nuances to it. There’s cool stuff under the surface that takes a while to find.

    and DO NOT forget about the feature where highlighted text shows up in the Markups List.

    I have not had this issue either.
    Normally it saves the report to the folder where the last files were uploaded from

    Thanks again everyone.

    As I said before, the worst part has been just getting started. Even though it’s only been 3 weeks, it feels longer (the week between Christmas and New Year’s sure didn’t help)

    For her the worst has been this thing called ascieties, which is a fluid build up in her abdomen. Having this drained every few days is very taxing. When they do this, they take anywhere from 4-6 liters of fluid from her. If there’s a good thing with Chemo, is that it will clear this up fairly quickly. Trust me when I say that this part is no fun.

    The next 9 weeks will be part one on this journey. 3 rounds of Chemo to (hopefully) shrink the tumors prior to surgery. Then of course, a fairly extensive abdominal surgery.

    Right now, that’s our goal. Get through the Chemo and get to the surgery.

    BC has some of the very best Cancer treatment centers anywhere, so our hope is good. I promise to keep everyone posted.

    Excellent question.

    I think the very nature of the tool itself doesn’t lend itself to a second leader.
    I would do what both David and Roye have suggested and match a callout to the Cloud+

    You can just add custom columns w/o editing the markup but if you want pre-populated columns you’ll have to re-save them

    The BatchConfig file is really the first step in any kind of automation. It will give you a consistent output of data.

    If I had any tips it would be to filter your Markups list first for just the columns you want first, that will give you a bit of a headstart.

    It’s going to take some experimentation to get it exactly right, but it’s well worth the time investment.

    They really just said that there was an announcement that they weren’t allowed to talk about yet.

    Next week, they can talk about it.

    As I said, with the Bluebeam announcement of the AI integrations, its my guess that XCON is coming back as they’ll want to do something like they did with Bluebeam Cloud.

    I’m thinking that’s what Jason and Michael were alluding to on Tuesday. (just my speculation, don’t hold me too it.)
    Plus with Bluebeam Labs and the AI stuff being introduced, they may want to launch it somewhere.

    Just my two cents

    I need to go see that. Do you know how often I want to take Excel Data and put it into a form?

    Oh they’ve already put her through all the tests.
    Plus she is going for genetic testing as well

    Thanks.

    The worst part has been just getting everything going. The Christmas season didn’t help because people were off for 4 days after Christmas.
