Why? What happens if you’ve already installed it?

@dhwalkellc just import the correct custom column set and everything should work.

@David Cutler maybe we should start offering a product review service for anyone who wants to send us some bits to test out? A nice new ultra powerful laptop would be a good item to start with in case anyone is listening out there! 😆

I’ve seen a few posts about assigning ‘tasks’ to the buttons on a programmable mouse so thought it’s got to be worth looking at.

Great idea David!

I think there might be a few glitches with this version – I’ve noticed it freezing a few times as well as more problems with custom markups.

I’ve actually captured the problem on video and have now sent it off to Bluebeam.

I’ve also noticed another problem where the order of the lines and text to a custom tool change order when a markup is placed.

Layers are assigned to the prebuilt tools. The first couple of times the tools are used everything works fine but then I notice there is no layer assigned in the Markup List and when I check the actual tool, the layer is gone from there too.

Hi @Troy
Hopefully the picture below shows what I mean.
The first markup has the label moved to the end and is then saved to a toolbox.
The second and third markups are created using the new tool.
I want the label to stay the same distance from the end of the markup but unfortunately Bluebeam seems to be placing it based on a distance from the centre point of the markup.

@dhwalkellc I do have a spreadsheet for measuring the cut & fill to roads if the long sections are available though…😆

A set-up using Bluebeam and Excel for slightly bigger areas – well it’s what I do! 😂
Use Bluebeam to grid up the drawing and then use Excel to enter the existing and proposed levels from the grid.

I export the custom columns from each of my profiles to a folder in Dropbox so there is always a copy to hand should I need them.
It’s actually best to save backups of the whole profile but I think @troy-degroot might be the person to explain best practices for that type of thing.

I add data from Excel to my drawing as David has suggested – it’s very quick & easy!
One tip is not to zoom in & out of the drawing if you are adding multiple information otherwise you will find that the imported information will be different sizes unless the zoom factor is exactly the same each time you do some pasting.
