    Hey @JackScanlon welcome to the Brainery Community.

    I’m not aware of a way to stack fractions. Sometimes when I need different symbols I open the Character Map function on my computer. The diameter is the most common one I use from there. I did see a very limited number of stacked fractions. Give that a try.

    This one had me scratching my head @DavidCutler

    You can crop an image, but apparently not a snapshot. It would be a long work around to save the snapshot to an image file, insert it and then crop it. Not worth it.

    You said you cannot use the Overlay function because the drawings are different scales. Have you tried the different Alignment options when overlaying? I typically use the 3 Points method and it will scale them to match and overlay.

    Keep me posted, great question and use case.

    Might not be the right train of thought, but could this be done with a count tool and a text search?

    I was just about to mention the export to Excel tool, but made sure I finished reading. As expected you already did that. Great job! Thanks for sharing!

    I think you may have to create a Set with only that group of sheets, then you can create a hyperlink to open the Set. I’m not sure you can target a group of sheets within a Set. I’d love to follow along as you learn more!

    the problem with text documents is that as soon as you add one letter or word, the entire remainder of the document wraps differently, therefore everything after that comes up as a change. I really like the workflow @DavidCutler suggested. Doing it in small bites and the color change is great.

    if you right-click on the icon in your toolset, select Create Count. this will create a duplicate tool in the toolset that is actually a count tool. After you do a word or text search, check all at the top of the results. Then in the Checked Options button next to that, apply a count, and select your new count tool from the list. This will place your symbol on top of each one Bluebeam found. You may not need the count, but you can use that to mark them all. Just be sure to review the drawing to see if the search missed any. If you need them all to be separate markups, right-click on one of them and select Split All.

    Hope this helps @christiaan

    can you share what your stamp looks like? With the count tool, you would do a text or visual search for an item, then you can apply a symbol to all the items it found. This may not be as automated as you’re looking for, but I don’t know of another way.

    That’s a good point. I’ve always gone with the default tags and organized by discipline. Do you have a set you could test and get back to the group?

    Custom Columns are so powerful and underutilized even if it’s just visual for you in the Properties Panel. I often create custom columns just to include them in formulas, but turn off the column so nobody can see it (or edit it).

    @pkkuehnel I 100% agree with @Doug McLean for the solution you are looking for. if you sent up custom statuses in the markups list, you can name them exactly what the phase of review is in your company language, and set the colors to change according to the selected status. it would also record who changed each status and when automatically.
