Revu 2020 - Measuring from pdf
« on: January 08, 2021, 07:16:40 AM »
I am using the trial version of Revu 2020 in order to assess its suitability for what I am looking to do.

I need to calibrate a PDF drg containing vector content - this is not a problem.
Then I need to select lengths (between two selected points, areas by selecting corners, etc) to highlight the measurements that I require - this is the problem - the measurements disappear when mouse is clicked to finish command.
 
It should be simple enough, well it was in Revu 2019 trail version, but the measurements just won't stay on the sheet.

Advice appreciated.

Try going to the Revu menu at the top left. I think you are in View mode, you want to be in Markup mode. Hope this helps!

Yeah that seems to be working thanks.

Anyone know of a decent video giving information on how to use the take-off element of BlueBeam?

Also, I am trying to set default measurement units to meters but they keep slipping back into millimetres. How do I set m as default?
