Bluebeam Layout 2of10

Part 3: • Bluebeam Markups 3of10 • The first thing I want to look at is just the general layout. I'm going to have to open up a normal drawing. I just dragged. Basically just took a file and direct it in here and also go to open. Some of you probably noticed that I told you to download a file to start with, the file that I told you to download was called a profile. • And you can see if I go to this review tab at the top here, these profiles are essentially different ways. The screen is set up personalized for, for use. If I, for example, if I changed this to a different one, these two bars at the top are going to change the toolbar. The side might appear some of these toolbars in the left might change some of the S basically all the customization built into each person's blooming view is going to be potentially changed if I change these. • So I've actually created one for today that I think is one that a lot of people are going to find pretty easy to use. But this is something that's totally customizable and you can see Daniel Jenkins and I have been going back and forth and he has settings that he likes, and I have settings that I like. • So I think that's one feature that people may want to mess around with a little bit. But if you did download the one that I sent you, if you go to this profile, go to manage profiles, and then you can import that file. That's the one that I have right there and it should look the same as when I screen does this actually might be up here is where I prefer to put my markups dialogue but should look really similar. • Lay of the Land • So I'm gonna try to walk through with, with everyone. What is the lay of the land now, if you're totally clueless, totally beginner, totally new newbie. Almost all the tools are available in different places. You need to figure out what's best for you, but. If you don't know where to go, looking at these top dialog boxes, you can get to pretty much every tool you might need without clicking any of these hotkeys or sidebars. • So if I wanted to draw a line, a hundred, my tools, there's a markup tab, a lot of stuff in here I could stamp, I can use the measuring tools. They're all buried in these different toolbar. I familiarize yourself with these top bars. These batch ones are a little bit more advanced but there's a lot of tools within the document, the tools and the view tab that those, those three headings really have pretty much everything you'd probably ever want to use. • Everything else I would say is you know, just different ways to get to the same thing. For example, you can see, I have these toolbars at the top. I could turn these off. I could add more of them again, very customizable. • Layout - Side Panels • And I'm basically going to start by just walking through these little side panels. • And again, a lot of these are really similar to Acrobat thumbnails. This is something that is also in Acrobat, and you've probably seen that before. These are just recent files bookmarks. these are different ways to jump between different pages. These are often auto-generated when we make a CAD set, this toolbox one, I'm going to come back to, but these are where we're going to be spending a lot of different time. • As I mentioned, you could go up and here you could make markups with these tools, but I find myself really using these tools a lot. And you can see I've got my own custom toolbox here. And then some of these other ones are just canned ones that are built into Bluebeam. Search again, really similar, similar to Acrobat measuring tool and other ones. • We're going to jump into a little bit later, but this is where we're going to be setting our scale. This is where we're going to be measuring and doing area calculations. This one's called Bluebeam studio. This is that put in the PDF in the cloud, doing the Google doc style style reviews. • I think that's going to be really powerful. And then there's also a properties bar as well. Which for example, if I make a line, automatically generates a little mini properties bar, but if I had my properties bar on the left selected, it will give me even more options to manipulate that if I want to there are you right? Click here. There are even more things you could add in if you wanted to you could turn these off again.
