05.07 Revision and Set Navigation Toolbar
Last Updated: 2022-09-01 12:17 |
At the bottom of every Takeoff Window is the Revision and Set Navigator toolbar which includes the Rotate and Overlay controls. These controls allow you to: - Navigate between different revisions of a Page (if there are any)
- Rotate the current Page (the plan, takeoff, annotations), by 90° increments
- Toggle the Overlay function (comparing two plans) on or off
Here is a closeup of the toolbar for a Bid with three Plan Sets... If you are trying to navigate between Pages (change the Plan and its Takeoff you are viewing in the Takeoff Window), use the Page Navigation control in the main toolbar. The Revision and Set Navigator allows you to navigate between Revisions of the current Plan (on same Page). Button | Description | What it does/How it is used... |

Rotate Plan and Takeoff Menu | | Rotate Page | Opens a small sub-menu that allows you to rotate or flip the current Page. Rotating a Page rotates the Plan in all Plan Sets associated with this Page and rotates the takeoff along with the Plan.
Most Annotations get rotated with the Page, however, Stamps and Named Views are not rotated and may not be in the same position after you rotate the Page. See Rotating Pages, Plans, and Takeoff on the Takeoff Tab for details. | Overlay Toggle |
| Overlay On-Off | Turns on and off the Overlay function. When you turn on Overlays, you'll see a small checkbox on each Revision tab (for Revisions to the left of the currently selected Revision). Overlay allows you to compare the currently selected version of a Plan to newer Revisions of the same Plan. See What are Revisions (or Addenda Sets or Issues)? and What is Overlay?.
| Revision Navigation | | Newest Revision | Activates the most recent Revision for this Page (the Current Set). | | Newer Revision | Activates the next, most recent Revision for this Page. | | Older Revision | Activates the next, older Revision for this Page. | | Oldest Revision | Activates the oldest Revision for this Page (usually the version in the Original Set). | Plan Revision Tabs (including Overlay checkbox) | | Selected Revision (dark blue background) | The Revision of this Page that is being viewed in the active Takeoff Window (dark blue) currently. Also the "base" Plan when using Overlay. | | Not Selected, but set as Overlay | | | Not Selected Revision (light blue background) | Revisions that are not being viewed in the active Takeoff Window (light blue) currently. You can overlay a newer Revision on top of an older Revision. |
Overlays and RevisionsYou can (visually) compare multiple versions of the same Plan by opening the same Plan in multiple Takeoff Windows and then select a different revision in each window. You can only use Overlay when there are newer Revisions of a Plan to compare the active Plan Set to (you can't select an older revision to compare the currently selected Revision to, you can only select newer Revisions). When Overlays are turned on, the Overlay Toolbar displays where the Takeoff Tools are shown when a Takeoff Item (formerly known as "Condition") is selected (on the left side of the Image Window). The Overlay Toolbar is replaced with the appropriate Takeoff Tools toolbar when you click on a Takeoff Item.
