Bluebeam Tip: Enhance Team Collaboration with a Shared Parameter Library in Bluebeam Revu

Setting up a shared parameter library in Bluebeam Revu can greatly enhance collaboration and consistency across your team. By creating a centralized collection of custom tools and settings, everyone can access the same resources, ensuring uniformity in markups and annotations.

Here's how to set up a shared parameter library:

1. Create Custom Tool Sets:
   • Open the Tool Chest panel.
   • Click on the gear icon and select Add Tool Set.
   • Name your tool set and choose where to save it.
   • Add custom tools or symbols to your new tool set.
2. Save Tool Sets to a Shared Location:
   • Navigate to the location where your tool set is saved.
   • Copy or move the tool set file (.btx) to a network location accessible by all team members.
3. Import Tool Sets on Team Members' Computers:
   • Each team member should open the Tool Chest panel.
   • Click on the gear icon and select Import.
   • Browse to the shared network location and select the tool set file.
   • The tool set will now appear in their Tool Chest for immediate use.
4. Maintain Consistency:
   • Encourage team members to use the shared tools for all markups.
   • Periodically update the shared tool sets with new tools as needed.

By implementing a shared parameter library, you ensure that everyone is using the same standards, which improves efficiency and reduces errors.
