Absolutely. Once the TIN is built, the contours are automatically generated. You just need to turn their display on/off in the properties tab.

Thanks for the kind words. We used the dynamic fill feature there, but we just cut the step-by-step from this video so we could focus on the Quantity Linking and not the standard takeoff tools.

@@ZenTekConsultants Ahaa I see.. Thanks for the reply!

That’s correct. You can tie this into your existing Excel estimating sheets, or ZenTek can help you do that!

Exactly, we nested the room ‘space’ inside the building ‘space’, etc. so it gave us a result like ‘BLDG 1 - 1ST Floor - Room 100’. You’re on the right track!

Either way works, and neither is wrong. For a lot of people, subassemblies are tedious and confusing, especially when working non-standard designs, so a feature line is a simpler control structure to work with.

Glad you liked it!

You have more options to customize counts by creating the symbols first and then converting them to count objects. Standard built-in count objects are limited to specific shapes/colors.

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.

If you are using PROCORE for web, click on the markup & press the delete key (DEL) on your keyboard. Your browser will ask you if you want to delete the markup & you can confirm it by clicking “OK”. Let us know if this works or if you’re utilizing the PROCORE app for Android/iOS devices.

Hi, Unfortunately this is not something we can provide guidance on. It's best to contact your local SBA office and a local legal firm for guidance. Best of luck!

Unfortunately there is no way to copy project Action Plan edits from one project to another, so you will have to change it on all the other projects that it the Action Plan template has been applied to.

Unfortunately, no. The linking can only be done on a cell-by-cell basis.

​ Yes, if you open the Properties panel at the same time as the Forms panel, you can change the font/color/size, etc. Click the form field tool, then BEFORE you place it on screen set the text settings in the Properties panel. Then place the field on the PDF and your settings are there.

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!

@@ZenTekConsultants Hi, thank you very much, I got it to work! Seems that what I've been doing wrong is saving them in same file location.

Unfortunately, no. Bluebeam has a one-way connection output from Bluebeam out to Excel, it doesn’t read back in at this point.

Your best bet here would be to generate a custom column in Bluebeam, using a formula that multiplies the length x depth fields rather that trying to handle the calculations in Excel.

Got it, thank you! I was able to find a work around using wall area.@@ZenTekConsultants

You’d be drawing out individual bars to do it, but you can overlap or wrap as needed. You might want to look into our ZenTek Revu Tools - Concrete set for this type of work. zentekconsultants.net/zentek-revu-tools/

@@ZenTekConsultants I emailed the customer support regarding these tools . Do they come with formulas also? If so I may be purchasing these

@@benl3rd No, the functionality is built-in but the Excel formulas have to be custom built. This is something ZenTek can help you with if needed.

@@ZenTekConsultants I’m saying the formulas for blue beam come with the tool set ?

@@benl3rd There are custom columns, with basic calculation formulas in our ZenTek Revu Tools and extended formulas in our ZenEstimate tools but they function only within Revu and aren’t linked to Excel by default, though they can be.

Using the Manual Alignment, with the snap commands on and carefully selecting (3) matching points is your best option. If that doesn’t help, it’s possible that the comparison is seeing slightly different line weights or colors.

You can visit zentekconsultants.net/zenestimate-tools/ to purchase.

550$ for tools wow

For items that require only a single acceptable answer, like a test, you need to use Radio Buttons and collect them as a group. Check boxes allow multiple selections to a single question.

Absolutely, the good thing is that there are plenty of integrations and add-ons for most of these types of tools that, provide real-time (or near real-time) sync to other systems. The other good thing is that all of these Cloud agents are replicated so usually, if something goes down, you're automatically shifted to a duplicate server without interruption.

Hi, yes we can. Please call us at 866-824-4459 to discuss your needs.

You have two options: just import the existing Bid files as documents, or you can download the Bid Form Template from inside Procore and fill it all out so everything can be re-imported as a standard Procore Bid.

The links work for any numeric column (built-in or custom) so if you link to the Count or Length of “2” Rebar” into a cell, the link will work.

Rather than a long explanation, because you’re right: it’s a complicated process, I’m going to tell you to take a look at our ZenEstimate Steel tools. We’ve gone thru all that complexity and built a set of tools that sounds like a perfect fit for what you’re asking about. zentekconsultants.net/zenestimate-tools/

A couple of things to check: first make sure you are using a version of Revu that has the CAD linking (Revu Complete). Next check that CAD is installed prior to installing Revu, so it adds all links. Last, run the BB Administrator tool and add all the PLUGINS for your CAD system, then APPLY and reboot.

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

@derekt9974 Thank you. We're glad we could help you with our video.

@user-jx8zw3yr1i Thanks! We're glad you're finding the tips useful.

@JesseStarrPhoto Our apologies. Please contact us via phone at 866-824-4459.

Any of the linear tools in our ZenEstimate sets can be dragged/re-sized using grips just like any Bluebeam linear measurement. In terms of rounding, that’s a function of the way you set up the document’s scale.

I understand but adjusting it by the grips doesnt set it manually because the numbers jump around too much.Any way around that? @@ZenTekConsultants

@@Moneymendoza56 Valid point, but it’s a feature not a bug! 😊 The linear tools are measurements on the plan, not necessarily data entry tools. They’re meant to show what’s drawn, not necessarily what you want it to show. One thing you can do is use the custom columns to handle rounding up or down as needed in a separate column. If you find your picks aren’t accurate enough, you can do a few things: 1. Zoom in closer to the area you’re working in, 2. Set the scaling accuracy to a higher value i.e., 1/64 instead of ½, 3. Make sure that all your grid/snap to grid tools are turned off. Hope that helps!

When you select a markup on a drawing, there should be a pop-up that has a ‘Trash Can’ icon on it, just select that to remove the selected item form the drawing.

Hi, it's best to take a look at our Bluebeam for Beginner course. We offer it live and on-demand. You can visit zentekconsultants.net/bluebeam-revu-for-beginners/
