You should really be importing rather than copy/ paste.

I saw that on LinkedIn and meant to go back to it.

Happy belated my friend.

Did I miss something?

Sort of on this topic, check out a post I shared this morning on LinkedIn.

This is pretty cool and could really cut down on a huge process in the field

and Dave, always trust but verify. I’ve had quite a few scales wrong, some of which by my own doing…lol

[Doug McLean]

Pretty cool.

To create a 3D PDF you need to export either a .u3d or an .ifc file. These are the 3D file types that Revu supports.
As long as that software can export that, its really just a Drag & Drop.

Good thing I was off for the 🇨🇦 Canada Day 🇨🇦 long weekend.
I had ZERO issues 😂

[Doug McLean]

Ok.
I thought there was something new to them.

I’m with you Dave, I don’t fully trust it myself either. I’d rather take the time to learn what each step does.
One of our PM’s here created an analysis spreadsheet. His Excel skills are not great. He obviously used AI to generate it, and its honestly one of the worst spreadsheets I’ve ever seen.

Unless you know exactly what it is you’re trying to accomplish, AI is just more likely to confuse you rather than help you. And if it breaks, then you’re in real trouble because you have no clue how to fix it.

[Doug McLean]

The best use of AI in Power Query is to generate or clean up your M-code.

I don’t need to run a report like the OP, I just export the data and clean it up with the click of a button. Not sure how AI is going to improve on that.

Now if AI can pull the data straight from the PDF w/o having to do an export, that would be something.

🤣

Don’t you just love it when something weird happens?

[Doug McLean]

most likely.
The bigger the model, the bigger the 3D PDF

[Doug McLean]

I had to close Revu, then everything worked when I reopened it
