    Hi mate, How do can we copy an item from action plan and paste it in another action plan template? Its is tedious process if there is an ITP and we have to create a project template for that ITP. We have to copy word by word rather than just simply copy and pasting the whole section.

      You can copy sections and items within an Action Plan, but I don’t think you can copy from one to another. Possibly consider duplicating the template you need, then copying/editing sections within it? Here’s a link to how that works: Copy Action Plan Items and Sections - Procore: support.procore.com/products/online/user-guide/project-level/action-plans/tutorials/copy-action-plan-items-and-sections#Copy_Sections_and_Items_on_an_Action_Plan

      Bookmarks are created in the PDF itself, the ‘Summary’ is for exporting to a file only, but you can easily insert that exported PDF back as the first page of the PDF so it becomes a table of contents, if that’s what you’re looking for. Use the Thumbnails tabs > Insert Pages to make that happen.

    • @ZenTekConsultants

      The key is to create a ‘Master PDF’ and a ‘Master Workbook’ and link them together. Place one (1) of every tool you have in the Master PDF and link them to the Master Workbook. Now, once you get a new job, save the Master Workbook to that job folder and change the source file to the construction documents. All the values will go to zero (0) but once you start adding in the tools into the CDs, the values auto-populate. The key to this whole process is well developed tool sets, which is something we can help you with here at ZenTek!

This way I can adjust the width of the tool on a floor plan to the length of the wall.

    How could this be accomplished for structural steel takeoff which has a plethora of material sizes of varying lengths and needs to be grouped by like material description, sorted by length longest to shortest? Each takeoff object (record) has lets say 10 variables. As I understand this, the Markup List is connected to Excel. How is the real question I am searching for. I have built a template that works by exporting from BB, however I want to eliminate that process by linking with Excel. Quantity Link is a one cell setup that falls way short of the solution I am looking to accomplish. I cannot summarize materials in linear footage due to size and material length availability.

      Hi, During the link process, you can filter for specific fields (i.e. Area or Length only) for specifically labeled items (i.e. SW1/SW2) but you need to do each in its own cell. There’s no logical way for it to sort different labels into the same cell, Excel would have no idea which you’d be looking for.

      Thank you for the quick response. I would be moving from cell to cell so renaming will be the key. Thank you.. as to Bluebeam transferring more info than needed to my spreadsheet and overriding adjacent cells, any help there would be apricated.

      The issue is the measurement and the measurement unit need to be split because in Excel, “4” is a number and “4 ft” is text, so Revu splits it and inserts two columns to handle that. Easiest thing is to insert a blank column to the right of your linked cells when creating the Workbook, then delete it after you’re done.@@scurry31a

    I used BB every single day in my job. I'm workin with PDF drawings constantly and BB is a MUST. Thanks for the tips - there is stuff here I didn't even think about doing, which will make life easier! Such as putting a tab on another window!! Excellent And I'll be honest, I didn't even consider the batch compare - genius! I made a video myself about using BB in combination with Bulk Rename tool: ua-cam.com/video/VKHPDXWVYnA/v-deo.html
