    Revu Disable Markup Auto-Selection

    In Bluebeam, after deleting a markup it auto-selects the next markup (or it mostly seems to be the next one), so if you hit delete a few times, you start deleting markups in whatever seemingly random order BB thinks you wanted. I wish it would just NOT select another markup so I could hit delete...

    Exclude some load cases in envelope?

    Simple question, I know I can disable some load cases for design operations, this is good, but I also don't want to see those same load cases in my envelope results. Unfortunately, I have found no way to do this. There is an option when running the analysis to "Envelope (only) of Marked...

    Unknown/confusing error message - 2033

    I am getting what seems to be a bug, but maybe there is something I'm just not thinking of, and you guys might have some ideas. Firstly, all I'm doing between the 3 test runs is updating the ANALYSIS OFFSET for 1 member (C8x13.75), and I get the following results: With +z-0.54, the analysis...

    Printing vector (not raster) graphics

    It's always bugged me that RISA prints everything as raster graphics. It would probably be even easier to program it if they just did vector graphics instead. This format wastes file size (and with lots of images, it adds up quickly) as well as removes the ability to select/copy text and to zoom...

    How to default to Keep Tool Selected

    I'm constantly annoyed by having to re-select a tool and subsequently reselecting Keep Tool Selected (KTS) every time I reopen the software. And it's not like it's just a single click, every single tool you open has it's own KTS option that you have to click for each and every tool you want to...

    PE Civil-Struct Practice Problem

    I'm working on studying for my PE, but one of my practice exam questions is confusing me, even with the answer worked in the back. I think they forgot to multiple by 2, which is pretty bad for a reference practice exam. Maybe you can direct me to my mistake: Here is the question (its only a...

    IBC (Eq 16-33) Wind Speed Conversion is INCORRECT

    I couldn't find any references to this online, and this is a huge oversight by the IBC committee. Any engineers working with wind, especially with older standards or software, or anything that references this very familiar equation, should be aware of the correct calculation, just incase it...
