    Vince, you’re correct the custom columns live in the document, not the profile. Go into an updated drawing and go to the custom column tab. Export the custom column file to a good location. Not on your old documents, go to the custom columns tab again and import that file. This should update the document!

    I’ve been saying it for years, Bluebeam is the Franks Hot Sause of software. 🔥

    I see anywhere that you can export the Linestyle name, which is interesting, that would be just as important as the color. One way you could get around this is to make sure the subject of the tool matches the linestyle used. This way you can export the Subject if you’re not already. Just a thought….

    File > New. In the resulting window select the Style you want.

    You can do just about anything in Revu, I have a tattoo to prove it. 🤣

    The only reason I still use PowerPoint is that I can point to things with my mouse, we cannot do that in Revu Presentation Mode.

    I’ve always thought the same. By marking all the elements you’re estimating, you now have an installation checklist and items to make notes on damage or installation problems (punch). One of the first things I try to incorporate with customers is how everyone else in the lifecycle of their projects could possibly benefit. How can we build systems for everyone from start to finish so we don’t redo the markups 4x
    Great thinking in your millwork case for sure! Now you just need to get your field team on Revu. I know a guy who would love to come out and train them, and maybe have some of those ribs you grilled up and shared on LinkedIn!

    At the top of the Sets Panel, there is a button to Add Files to Set. If I remember correctly, once you navigate to the new files it may ask you to create tags on those new sheets.

    The customer wanted to keep ft’in” to know the true length. I have to build a custom column to round up. Unless there’s another way… thanks Matt!

    Once you have the grid imported in the PDF, try “Automatically Create Form Fields”

    Oh wait, add that to your list of reasons to get Extreme. 😂😂

    I assume the recordings will be shared as well, there was a great list of courses this year. didn’t seem like anything really basic. Good luck with your course, I know you will be fantastic and I can’t wait to check it out.

    That would be nice in Revu, but highly unlikely based on simple lines and text. Revu would never know how to distinguish what boundaries define a space or not. I wouldn’t put it past them to figure it out though.
    I know when you create “Rooms” in Revit, those convert to Spaces when printing to a pdf. (depending on license and settings).
