    Forum Description

    One of the biggest differences you can make using Bluebeam Revu is to create standard custom tools and share them throughout your team.  Standard markup and takeoff tools are crucial to producing easily understood, consistent markups. Why not build the wisdom of your most senior employees into the tools you can train a new hire next week.  Once you have everything built, here are some best practices for sharing Bluebeam Revu Toolsets and Profiles.  Start letting Revu do the heavy lifting. Every week I'm building custom tools and Profiles for companies across the United States.  This post is a simple reminder to myself.  Each required step of the process, in the correct order, is crucial to success. So, let's talk about best practices for sharing Bluebeam Revu Tools & Profiles
    1. In the Manage Columns window, on the Custom Columns Tab, be sure to Save to Profile your column template. This is important each time you make any changes to the custom columns.
    2. Save and export a copy of all Tool Sets so the customer has them individually if needed.
    3. Be sure if you have any custom hatch patterns, be sure to set them to Relative Path. Click here to download FREE AutoCAD hatch patterns.
    4. If you're using custom line styles be sure to set those to Relative Paths as well.
    5. In Revu 20 or newer, be sure to create and save any useful Filter Configurations in the Markups List.
    6. Save the Profile so all the updates are maintained in the most current state.
    7. Export the Profile with dependencies. This should have everything associated correctly if there are any issues they can load the individual parts as needed.
    8. Once the file is exported, you can email it, save it to the server or build it into the MSI file for quick distribution.
    In the Manage Columns window, on the Custom Columns Tab, be sure to Save to Profile your column template. This is important each time you make any changes to the custom columns.Save and export a copy of all Tool Sets so the customer has them individually if needed.Save the Profile so all the updates are maintained in the most current state. *TIP #1  If you update Tools and Profiles regularly, you may have to delete the old ones in order for them to load correctly. I go into Manage toolsets to delete all the toolsets that are updated. Then I go into Manage Profiles to do the same with the Profile. *TIP #2 Copy the path to the profile and tool location and create a shortcut on your desktop to quickly manage your files.
