I almost always build tools with intent, and I try to work out what’s going to happen before it happens, that being said… best laid plans and all that. 💥💣

When this does happen its usually much later down the road when I realize I can use an existing data point for something else. I’ve had a couple of instances where 💡and I say, “hey, I can use this for a join or something.

[Doug McLean]

well they let me in again….MUHAHAHAHA!!!🇨🇦

Honestly, I had an awesome Customs Agent who actually knew about Project Bluebeam.

See everyone tonight.

Did my first run through of my presentation today and it went well.

Came in at 48 minutes, which is acceptable. A bit of room for questions.

Did get some feedback, so I have a little work to do. Nothing major.

Was good to do a run through because I hadn’t done the demo’s live yet and now I ha to work out a few bugs.

Don’t think I’m going to have to finish it on the plane or Wednesday morning, but one never knows… lol

Barring a complete disaster at Customs, I will be there and presenting.

That’s a long flight from Calgary to DC

just dropped a little teaser in the Community Forum

[Doug McLean]

Yeah, it will come together.

I’m writing up the “Recipe Cards” now, PowerPoint slides that explain how to do this stuff.

Still need to do a run through or two though and finalize the Grande Finale!!

[Doug McLean]

you didn’t get the memo?
We sent him the memo, right guys? 🤣

Sounds like you’ve got some gremlins Dave.

Whisky time.

[Doug McLean]

yup, had that one myself.

Have you had the one that won’t toggle over to Properties mode by double clicking yet?

[Doug McLean]

have yet to update, so I haven’t seen this yet.
Is it just a case of the highlighter function being reset?

[Doug McLean]

I’m not seeing it as a Side Panel.

I was in a webinar yesterday and the Host (Stephanie) had it in the Document Menu directly under the Compare and Overlay headings.
I would love to have to activated because I can see this being used in Architectural as well as Civil.

I still have the version that we were using on the Beta (21.7.0) for the ‘Magic Wand’ features, but I’m not seeing Stitching anywhere.

[Doug McLean]

Stitching is still in Beta and will probably only be available in MAX.

[Doug McLean]

it has its Gremlins, that’s for sure

[Doug McLean]

This one was just my Estimating Team.
I’m going to try and do one more tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll get a few more folks from our office.

Did you get a chance to look over the Presentation yet?

[Doug McLean]

you’re starting to get to the point where it makes more sense to export a .csv file and let Excel do it thing.
Troy said it best, Bluebeam is great at measurements, and Excel is great at formulas. Combine them and you have quite the formidable team.
