BCP Managing the Markups List 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In the Markups List, which column allows you to track whether a reviewer has acted on a markup?
- Status (Correct answer)
- Subject
- Label
- Space
Correct answer: Status
The Status column lets team members assign workflow states (e.g., Accepted, Rejected, Completed) to indicate action taken on each markup.
Question 2: How do you quickly hide all markups from a specific author in the Markups List?
- Filter the Author column to exclude that person (Correct answer)
- Delete their markups temporarily
- Move their markups to a hidden layer
- Change the markup color to white
Correct answer: Filter the Author column to exclude that person
Applying a filter on the Author column lets you show or hide markups from specific contributors without altering or removing the markups.
Question 3: What happens to the Markups List view when you apply a filter that matches zero markups?
- The list displays empty with no rows (Correct answer)
- Bluebeam automatically clears the filter
- An error dialog appears
- All markups become visible as a fallback
Correct answer: The list displays empty with no rows
When no markups match the active filter criteria, the Markups List simply shows an empty table with no rows.
Question 4: Which Markups List feature lets you group markups so that all items sharing the same Subject value are displayed together?
- Sort by Subject column
- Group By Subject (Correct answer)
- Filter on Subject
- Collapse by Subject
Correct answer: Group By Subject
The Group By function collapses the Markups List into expandable sections based on a selected column such as Subject, making related items easier to review.
Question 5: When exporting the Markups List to CSV, which items are included by default?
- Only currently visible (filtered) markups (Correct answer)
- All markups regardless of filters
- Only markups with a non-empty Status
- Only markups on the current page
Correct answer: Only currently visible (filtered) markups
By default, the CSV export respects any active filters and exports only the markups currently visible in the Markups List.
Question 6: What is the purpose of the 'Space' column in the Markups List?
- It identifies the named Space region on the drawing where the markup is located (Correct answer)
- It stores blank notes for the reviewer
- It tracks the physical file size of the markup
- It records the page number of the markup
Correct answer: It identifies the named Space region on the drawing where the markup is located
The Space column auto-populates with the name of any defined Space region that contains the markup, helping route comments to the correct area or discipline.
Question 7: In Bluebeam Revu, how can a user re-sort the Markups List by date after previously sorting by author?
- Click the Date column header in the Markups List (Correct answer)
- Use Edit > Preferences to change sort order
- Close and reopen the Markups List panel
- Right-click any markup and choose Sort by Date
Correct answer: Click the Date column header in the Markups List
Clicking a column header in the Markups List immediately re-sorts the list by that column, toggling between ascending and descending order.
