Bluebeam Revu 21 | Wonders of the Tool Chest

When we have a lot of files to present at meetings, to alter and recreate, we often find ourselves stressed out and unfocused which leads to forgetting the location of our tools very easily, costing us time and effort. Bluebeam’s tool chest is an essential feature that cuts time and money by making marking up documents simpler. The feature allows you to store the markups you work on the most in a safe place easy to access when necessary.

What is the Tool Chest?

Just like how you would take a box of specific tools to a site to use, Tool Chest is a storing feature that allows you to organise pre-drawn objects and groups into a tab for later use. You can also add to the tool chest by clicking the subfolder You can rearrange the order of the saved objects within the folder by dragging them around.

How does the Tool Chest benefit Me?

Having your own storage unit doesn’t sound as interesting as it’s quite common to have one in software nowadays; However, the tool chest function comes with its own perks. you can make your own keyboard shortcuts for the markups you intend to focus on by creating your own personal tool chest that works for you as not everyone will use the same tools to make their markups and content.

 In terms of the tools, they can be a single markup or a group of markups and will retain whatever properties they have when you add them to your tool chest.

If you make a set of tools the structure does not change if you switch to another profile. I like this feature because if your company uses profiles, you can still have your own tool chest with the items that are most useful to your workflow regardless of what changes the powers-that-be decided to make. No one else can edit it except you. You can also arrange your toolset within the bundle you have created if you use one tool mainly in comparison to others.

Scaling can be tricky but will the tool chest you are now able to draw them to the scale that you require.

Making My Own Tool Chest

If you ever find yourself using the same several markups over and over again, try putting them in my tools you’ll have a tool chest that’s unique to you that even your Bluebeam Admins can’t even edit, plus you’ll get your keyboard shortcuts if you are able to master that level. 

My tools can be found at the top of the tool chest tab. If you don’t see it, click on the tool chest dropdown, then click on My Tools.

The tool chest is what makes Bluebeam Revu really show its potential when it comes to in-site work-based operations or even when preparing the paperwork. Guaranteed to cut your time. Allowing you to be able to effectively handle this task within a short amount of time.
