It might be a result of the outage last week. That’s the only guess I have. Here is the link on how to fix it. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Finally, I can turn off the “Comment” column in the toolsets. I think this has been a request for over 20 years.

With that said, what bugs are everyone seeing in the new update?

• My scroll wheel zoom sometimes becomes unresponsive for no apparent reason. To be fair, I had this issue in past versions.
• My Legends are not creating properly, and are not updating live. Whether I create the Legend from the markups on the drawing or from the Toolset, they don’t report the information. When I add new markups, they don’t update the Legend. When I manually add the markups to the existing Legend, they create a new instance rather than adding to the existing markup quantity.

Probably more, but those are the biggest headaches during the class I taught yesterday.

I haven’t missed one since 2015, and I have the socks and t-shirts to prove it. I’ll be there!

@DavidCutler is correct regarding the lack of this particular functionality in Revu and the value of exporting to Excel. I’m not sure if this would be exactly what you need, but you could try filtering by one column value and sorting by the other. The only time you can sort by two columns is if you set that up in the export settings. Love the questions, keep us posted.

First, you will need to update your waste custom column and move the decimal two spaces. Your 10% waste should be 1.10 not 110. this will work better in the calculation. While you’re updating that custom column, I would uncheck the box that says Show Totals, it only confuses things when it show a total of percentages added at the top of the column. The, you need to create another custom column with a formula that takes the measurement x the waste factor.

Civil models can have an extremely large number of points and surfaces. If he could provide just the right layers, it should reduce the file size. Maybe you’ll have more success with that…?

I’m excited to see it when you make it work.

I wonder if their file could be imported into another software, maybe Civil 3D, and then exported as an ICF… where there’s a will, there’s a way.

I wasn’t sure, but it was worth a shot. Glad they are up and running.

@Vince Just remember Newton’s Third Law of Updates, “For every bug fix, there is an equal and opposite new bug.” 🤣

@Vince Looks like the 21.6.1 update published today has eliminated the “My Tools” issue

I came in here to share the link, and you beat me to it my friend. Thank you!

You don’t like having 4 different My Tools you can’t get rid of? 🤣

I only save mine to the default location, and I still have this issue. This issue has been occurring for months before the update. There is only one file in the folder, but 4 toolsets somehow.

I’ve been fighting this one for a while as well. I don’t find bugs in the versions like we used to; my bugs are alive and constantly moving. Basic things work in the morning, but not in the afternoon. If I close BB and open it, it works, but a new bug comes up. I typically have to shut down BB three times during a two-hour class.

Of course @dakotah great question.

Glad you’re here in the community, welcome!

Nice little tip you snuck into your own post. Thanks for sharing. Always adding value my friend.
