Event Description

Whether you’re opening Bluebeam Revu®  for the first time, or you’ve used it for years, this course will improve your baseline knowledge of the software. You’ll learn interface navigation including menu dropdowns, toolbars, various tool panels, keyboard shortcuts and a few recommended settings. Other course topics include various markup and measurement tools, and you’ll get several tips and tricks to take away that will increase your speed and accuracy.  

 

Learning Objectives:

  • Interface Navigation 
  • Calibration & Measurements 
  • Introduction to the Markups List

 Technical Requirements:

 

1.      Computer or laptop

 

This course will involve on-screen interaction with your instructor and classmates, reading/viewing on-screen content (slides or videos), and interacting via typing with questions or responses. For this reason, cellphones or  tablets will not be adequate.

 

You will need TWO screens for the training to be effective.

  • The first screen needs to be a Windows computer with Bluebeam Revu® 2018  installed.
  • The second screen is to display the Zoom meeting 
  • Tablets and cellphones would not be suitable as a second screen. 

2.      Software - You will need a fully functioning version of Bluebeam Revu® 2018 . Any Windows version is ok (Standard, CAD, or eXtreme). The Mac version will not work. If you have an older version, you can download a 2018 trial and install it ‘side by side’ your existing install.

3.      A mouse with scroll wheel (Mandatory) In Bluebeam there are several right-click shortcuts, and the wheel will help you zoom in/out on documents.

5.      Microphone (Mandatory)

 

6.      Internet connection - For best results, you will want to ensure you have an internet connection with an upload/download speed of 3-5 Mbps. You can test your internet speed here. Minimum recommended speed is 1.5 Mbps, but anything below 3 Mbps may result in loss of quality or buffering. Ideally hardwired connection versus wireless for stability - connect your computer directly to your router using an ethernet cable, rather than using your home wi-fi.
