In a word, yes.

As has been mentioned, all you’ll need to do is to change your source file and all the links will work.

One thing you may want to learn for future use, is how to unlink the Excel workbook from Revu.

I’d definitely be in.

[Doug McLean]

Yeah, I think I will.

[Doug McLean]

Thanks @David Cutler .

It’s always fun to co-host the MCR.

Vince has really pushed the envelope in my opinion. Using the colour codes with another data table is brilliant.

[Doug McLean]

Didn’t even think of that.

[Doug McLean]

wow, that’s hardly any…. our next one is Easter, which is in April this year.

We now get 11 ‘Statutory’ holidays a year here in BC, union workers usually get at least two more.

[Doug McLean]

well it is very expensive, but for your $800 US per person, you should get a lot.
My wife was just looking at an HR conference here in Vancouver that was $1100 CAD for two days, but they have paid speakers, which Bluebeam does not do really.

I for one would LOVE to see it go ahead, I’m just wondering how much Nemetscheck is pulling the strings though

[Doug McLean]

Holiday here in Canada too.

Family Day in most of the country

Try the Export to Word function.

Might work better

[Doug McLean]

Thanks Vince. (from Danna too!) (our other Estimator)
That worked

[Doug McLean]

I do have to go back and look at that trick you showed on how to search for specific elevation callouts.

[Doug McLean]

every so often, you find someone doing something that you didn’t know could be done.

Even advanced users don’t know all the little tricks

[Doug McLean]

I did think about making a new blank page, taking a snapshot and then rotating the snapshot on the blank page.
I shouldn’t have to do that though.

Doing a helix is one of the most challenging aspects of Millwork (or Architectural Metalwork).
Wood doesn’t like to twist. You can if you steam it, but even that posts its own challenges.

Designers like to think that this stuff is easy, but its not. It’s also expensive, because it takes a skilled tradesman to actually pull this off.

Back in the day, they would just sketch this out, and then a Finish Carpenter would lay these out on site and just start making it happen. There are tricks to doing these things. In todays world, with having to submit shop drawings for everything and CNC’ing parts, it actually makes it a bit harder.

Revit, ArchiCAD, Soildworks… they’re all awesome, but people have to try and build this stuff that designers are coming up with. It’s fun, but also challenging at the same time

[Doug McLean]

I’m sure we’ll be able to post pictures of this one as it will be in a public space
