Thank you! When inserting a block, you can type “R” to rotate it before placing it. Then, your array will be in the same rotation. You can also edit the block and associate a Rotate Action with a Rotate Parameter, the object(s), and the other parameters associated with the array.

Surely this isn’t a premium feature

If a PDF has been digitally signed with “Document Certification”, its pages can’t be rotated. Also, some PDFs have security permissions that restrict “assembling” the document. This can be confirmed by selecting the “Document” drop-down and selecting “Security”. Exporting the document’s pages could create a new copy without security permissions.

The unit column’s data can only be changed if the markup’s units are changed. This can be done by selecting the markup, selecting the Measurements panel (It looks like a ruler), and changing the “Area” (Or whichever measurement’s unit you need to change) to something else. The Legend will automatically update with new unit info. We created Custom Columns for Quantity Takeoffs and Cost Analysis. We added these custom columns to our Legend, and they were initially created in the Markups List. Here’s a tutorial that demonstrates how we created them: th-cam.com/video/3k03yKMYWPE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PxTrSgPWqjjKKdXr

@@DigitalDraftingSystems The column unit in my markup list is in line with my measurement which is Polylength, I have the correct Area unit in sf, since I set the depth manually, the depth times the lineal measure gives me area in sf., but the unit column is the unit of Polylength, which is set to be ft. I have the correct units in comments column, it's not the issue of unit conversion, it is not having the final wall are unit in my legend, it only gives your default Polylength unit which you set in under the 'ruler' icon to be ft or m. Unlike measuring a floor area, if I use area measurement in plan-view, it gives area unit, which is what we want. I didn't use elevation view to do my markups for wall area, I use line measurement in plan-view for wall first and add wall height, but unit should be sq in, sf, sq cm, sq mm, ac, ha, etc. What I'd like to see is having an area unit in the legend area under unit column if I started with length unit by Polylength measurement. If I want to know the volume for concrete foundation, I will start with area measurement, maybe in sf, then add the depth in ft, Bluebeam works out the volume, but the unit column is sf, but I'd like to see cubic ft, is there any way to achieve that, thank you!

@@user-mz3lt2gc8q Displaying more than one “Unit” in a Legend may not be possible according to our tests. This can be displayed in our Markups List, and we can create Summary Reports with multiple units and data. You can submit a feature request to Bluebeam here: community.bluebeam.com/bluebeam-community

We created the custom “Concrete Area” markup by creating an “Area”, opening the “Properties” panel, and selecting “Edit” next to “Show Caption”. You can turn on many captions, including “Label”. Then, in the “Label” section near the top of “Properties”, you can type any text you want. It will display itself on the PDF after you select a blank section of the PDF or if you select another section, such as “Subject”. We created a tutorial for this around a year ago: th-cam.com/video/GB-IDWYzG3I/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ftPe_ohPdwunjh6Y If you navigate to 7:18 in the video, you’ll find the section where we demonstrate how to create a customized area markup.

Hello. The Shared, Consumed and Live linking is all determined based on how the files are linked to and what workflows you follow when going about the project process (sharing, consuming, etc.). This should all be covered in the Docs and Design videos in this same playlist. From there, you can set whatever folder you choose to be your Model Coordination space and any project in that folder will be clashed.

We have another video on Multileaders: th-cam.com/video/4VNFy95xnws/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=DigitalDraftingSystemsInc.

Hello. Sadly we are a bit limited in this respect, but what you can do is change how they are grouped (from a list of pre-defined parameters). To do this, click on the "Filter and Group" button near the top of the list when viewing your clashes. Here you can change the grouping from by Obrject to a number of other options. Hope this helps!

Yes, Polygon and Ellipse Cutouts can be copied and pasted onto other parts of the same area and onto different areas. We can right-click on the center or edge of the Cutout, and the right-click menu should show “Delete Cutout” if done on the Cutout and not the Area itself. You can then mouse-over an area, right-click, and select “Paste” from the generic right-click menu. We’re using Revu 21.1, but this has been available since Revu 2017. Here’s a link to the “Release Notes” for Revu: support.bluebeam.com/articles/release-notes-bluebeam-revu/, and here’s the section that talks about how Cutouts were improved: “Along with the new ellipse cutout option, cutouts can now be copied and pasted within Area and Volume measurements. Additionally, the polygon cutout can cut through an edge of an Area or Volume measurement, reforming the overall boundary of the measurement. Automatically fill cutouts by selecting an area or volume measurement and clicking inside the cutout region. Hold the SHIFT key to fill all remaining unfilled cutouts.

Thank you! To solve this, you'll likely need to set up a graphics override for the specific line type you're working with. Check the filters first to see which line types are involved. For each line type, you'll need to create a separate line type family. Once that’s done, you can either apply a color override to each one, or you could just create the line types in the color you want right from the start. This way, you can save them as distinct line types, making things a bit simpler and clearer.

@@DigitalDraftingSystems great i will try this and thank you for speedy reply!!

Hello. Make sure you download the TwinMotion installer from the Autodesk site directly, it will not be the regular Twin Motion version.

While we can set our page’s scale to “cm” or “mm”, along with “m” and “km”, this won’t change each subsequent measurement, and while we can also change each measurement’s units, this will be reverted for new measurements after the first one. This can be fixed by right-clicking on a measurement set to metric units and selecting “Set as Default”. This will need to be done for all measurements and only affects our shortcuts. We can also save these measurements to our Tool Chest and retain our metric units. If you want to exclusively measure in metric with all programs, including Bluebeam Revu, you’ll want to change your Windows settings by selecting the “Start” menu, selecting “Settings”, and searching for “Measure”. The setting labeled, “Change the way measurements are displayed” should pop up, and selecting this text will lead you to the “Region” dialogue. After selecting “Additional settings”, we can change the “Measurement system” from “U.S.” to “Metric”.

We’re glad you enjoyed the video. The Pan tool acts the same on Landscape and Portrait pages, and when we hold the “CTRL” key, we can toggle between “Scrolling Pages” and “One Full Page”. This is how you can change the icon next to the Pan tool from a magnifying glass to two arrows facing up and down. We created a video that illustrates this a couple of years ago: th-cam.com/video/32jnrm37V6k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vf81xzAMMsBNPvru

We don't believe there is a way to do this in Revit. One suggestion would be to rotate the image outside of Revit, save it and then bring it into Revit/ the schedule. We hope this helps.

The Layer States must be created in the DWG with the layouts. Any Layer States in an XREF won’t work if the XREF is linked to another file.

Thanks so much for your kind feedback!

Thanks! These tools only work for vector data and not scanned files/photos/images.

@@DigitalDraftingSystems Ah, I figured that but just wanted to make sure. Thanks for the quick response!

According to our tests, we don’t believe it’s possible to synchronize only some views and not all views/sheets/files. We can go to suggestions.bluebeam.com/ideas/new and suggest this neat feature.

We can click on the arrow pointing down next to the “Synchronize Views” button on the bottom-right and change between “Page” and “Document”. Also, different page sizes still use the same “X & Y” coordinates, and 0,0 is on the upper-left side of all PDFs regardless of their size.

We tested that pin with different versions on different computers, and we found that it didn’t keep the window open when we switched to another tab in our Ribbon to use a command. If you had successful results when using the Pin icon, please let us know.

An existing block on a sheet won’t update if you add/change an attribute to the block file itself. You’ll want to place a new block down after updating it. If this isn’t the issue, then you’ll want to ensure that your attribute isn’t “Invisible”. This can be checked when editing the block in the “Block Editor”, selecting the attribute, opening Properties, and scrolling down to see if certain “Misc” settings say “Yes” or “No”, including Invisible.

If you have several of the same blocks with attributes already on your sheet, and you go back to the “Block Editor” to add more attributes to them, they will not update and include those new attributes. You’d need to replace the blocks. If you want to change multiple existing attributes, you can select the blocks with the attributes and open the “Properties” panel (If it’s not already open, you can right-click on one of the blocks and select “Properties”). Then, if you scroll down to the bottom of Properties, you’ll see “Attributes” with text to the right of it. You can change this text for all selected blocks

A PDF created in Bluebeam Revu can be opened in other PDF programs like Adobe Acrobat Reader with editable markups, measurements, etc. There’s no need to use the “Export” feature. Nevertheless, if you use the “Archive as PDF/A” option and change the “Save as type:” to “PDF Files”, you can essentially create a “copy” of your PDF. However, this is much more easily accomplished by simply using “Save As” within Revu. Note: Some markups created in Bluebeam Revu (Cloud+, Typewriter, etc.) may not be compatible with other PDF programs since those programs don’t have the same markup tool(s).

@@DigitalDraftingSystems Thank you. Found out today I can open in Adobe with no problem. Never used Blue-beam before. Loving it.

We can create the stamps on all 450+ pages first by using “Paste in Place”, and if you have Revu Complete/eXtreme, you can select “Batch” at the top of the screen and select “Apply Stamp”. After placing the stamp on all pages in the same spot, you can select all 450+ stamps in the Markups List by opening the list, selecting one stamp on your sheet, and using the “Shift” key to select all of them in the list at the same time. Then, you can right-click on one of the stamps on your sheet (Not in the Markups List), select “Edit Action”, and create your hyperlink. This will apply the hyperlink to all 450 stamps at the same time. This can also be done for regular Markups and Measurements. You can also go to “Batch” and select “Link” to apply a hyperlink to all 450+ pages at once.

If you saved the file and closed it, there isn’t a way to unflatten the file. I recommend making a copy of a file before flattening and incorporating this into your workflow. If you still have the file open, you can press the “Undo” key and “manually unflatten” your data. If you must, you can also use the “Edit PDF Content” tools to remove the flattened data and re-create it with Markups and Measurement tools. Best of luck!

@@DigitalDraftingSystems first thank uo to answer me inter the website to autodesk but talk about type of license I use something like this but Iam use crake it work before but now stop

@@DigitalDraftingSystems I think I will format my computer because I need work on programs

We are not able to help support the activation of non-valid (cracked) licenses as these do not comply with the Autodesk User License Agreement. @ammarth2051

Were you able to change the file format to “All Image Files”? During this tutorial, we were using Revu eXtreme, but this should work with Revu Standard, CAD, Basics, Core, and Complete as well.

@@DigitalDraftingSystemsthank you for your answer, i finally made it work, hade to change my plan in my profile.
