@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.

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!

Well done @DavidCutler , combining different tools for a real-world solution quickly and accurately. 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!

Of course @dakotah great question.

Glad you’re here in the community, welcome!

[Troy DeGroot]

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

I used to do the same thing with a saved document.

[Troy DeGroot]

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.

[Troy DeGroot]

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).
