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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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

MemberApril 3, 2025 at 10:32 am in reply to: How to place stamp from toolchest wit javascriptPoints: 25,394Rank: UC2 Brainery Advanced Brown Beltif 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

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.
