    I get this the odd time with Sets.
    Even if I make no changes to the Set, it wants me to save it. Not overly sure why though.

    I’m thinking its a SharePoint thing though.

    You’ll have to set up the tool with an Imperial measurement, and then click Set as Default.
    Might have to do it with a few tools as well

    I did a couple of math examples and it does actually come out pretty close.

    Good to know

    One other difference is that the Perimeter tool can be dragged to a rectangle, while the Polylength tool cannot.

    If you can’t select them in the markups list, you won’t be able to do much with them, they’ll be embedded within the PDF content.
    I’m with David on this one, ask for a clean set of drawings.

    I think Bluebeam tells you you can do that with images. Good to know that you can also do it with a Word Doc.

    I knew it was in there somewhere. I just couldn’t find it.

    Thanks for sharing

    that’s why I changed the height of one to match the angle. so one is actually 2500 x 621 (or something)

    well that’s odd, it came with a black background, so you can’t see the text

    There’s no substitute for bad drawings.

    We had one set of drawings, on a major project no less, that had text buried on a hidden layer from ACAD.

    The only way I could get automark to read it was to only cover half of the page label with the box.

    Bad drawings suck.

    You might just need to apply the right filters.

    Could be a lot of things though.

    Its great isn’t it?

    I learned most of mine by watching ExcelisFun on YouTube, as well as a couple other Excel people.

    Once you get it written, just record a refresh and attach to a button. Even easier.
