    There is a centroid box you can check which will show the center of any markup. I believe it’s on the properties panel.

    Are you asking how to make an irregular shape? Instead of click and hold, click and release, then click on your other points. You also may want to make sure your ‘Snap to Content’ box is selected.

    Wondering if anyone has any other insights on this?

    This is actually going to be the topic of an upcoming video.
    The way I deal with this is to get the data out of Revu and into something that will allow you to transform it.

    way to go Troy.

    We might be getting a few more members here in the upcoming weeks. Just did an interview for a Podcast that I threw a few shameless plugs in for you.

    This is just another reason why I much prefer to work in individual sheets.

    I never have to worry about going back to a previous view, I just pop to the other tab.
    Where it becomes an issue is when I have a boatload of tabs open.

    Vince have you tried changing how the revised pages get stacked by the Set?

    You’ll have to go into your preferences, but it should solve some of your issues.

    If I had to learn one thing over again, it would be how important custom tools and custom columns really are. Learn how to create them and how the data that comes from them can be worked.
    Data, and how we work that data, is becoming increasingly important in today’s construction environment. We need to harness it.

    Welcome Anthony.

    The answers to your questions are going to highly depend on your workflows.
    I can really only answer one of them, and that’s to the standardized template…. Yes. Profiles can be shared.
    The rest are all going to depend on just how far you want to take it.

    If I had a tip… Learn.
    When you start with a problem, you want to figure out where you want to go – your target condition. Then you want to see where you are now – your current condition. Then you just have to figure out how to get there and what obstacles do you need to overcome.
    You also should base everything on need. Ask yourself, “What problem am I trying to solve.”

    Once you’re there, you can work the problem one step at a time to achieve your goals.

    If you like, search out the Morning Coffee Revu at ATG and join us Tuesday mornings at 9:30 EDT for a great webinar and chat.

    Don’t be afraid to ask questions. That’s what we’re here for.

    was the tool chest saved?

    Other than than, I’ll go with what @David Cutler said

    I also tend not to use the math functions in Revu because they are far to basic for my needs.

    I’ll just export the data and do all that stuff in Excel. Much easier.

    The Round function works pretty much like the round function in Excel. I don’t think it rounds up or down though. It follows standard rules of rounding

    SQL is a Database reference. Might be the way the function works in there

    I almost always get at least one thing out of every webinar I attend.
    With yours it was the “None” status v. a null status.

    The way you explained it made sense to me.

    Oh I hate dealing with solid wood waste when it comes to Millwork. Too many things come into play.
