The measurement will appear as a markup and show up in the Markups list. You can change the appearance of the measurement on the Properties panel.

If the page scale has been set, a preview of key measurement values will appear in the lower-right corner of the drawing as you place measurements to help ensure precision. You can hide this preview window by clicking the X to its left. When minimized, the preview window is replaced with a measure icon; click this icon to recall the measurement values preview window. Note that you can hide and recall this preview window while placing a measurement.

When gluing wood to glass, it’s important to consider what will happen to any excess glue when it dries. Choose a product that not only creates a strong bond between both surfaces, but also dries clear—  silicon adhesive (particularly for window frames) or a hot glue gun are both great choices. Whatever glue you choose, always remember to ensure both surfaces are clean before beginning.

Measurements can be left on the PDF as markups, allowing you to measure many items on the same document and process the results in a variety of ways later, including through the Markups list.

The Measure tool creates measurements in any of several measurement modes. Measurements can persist as markups, allowing for processing and summarization through the Markups list, which is useful for estimation and takeoffs, or be temporary, which is useful for quickly measuring something without creating a visual record on the PDF.

There are a whole lot of different glues on the market, not to mention virtually endless combinations of materials you might want to stick together. Unsurprisingly, this can lead to some confusion. Not understanding which product to use can be frustrating as well as ineffective, and in some cases can mean the end of your project all together. While it’s always important to think carefully about which glue is best for the job, some surfaces are more challenging than others. This is especially true of glass primarily because its smooth surface offers very little grip.

Here we will look at some of the most common surface combinations and what type of adhesives can provide the best solution.

Temporary measurements are often used for quick measurements or to add up several measurements without leaving a visual record on the PDF.

To glue glass to metal, consider the size and precision required for the project. You can use a clear drying super glue for smaller projects, but bear in mind how quickly super glue dries and also that it typically isn’t waterproof. If you need a weatherproof bond or a bit more time to position your materials, an epoxy will also work well, able to form a strong bond between the most difficult of materials in just 5 minutes. Always remember to read the instructions and follow any warnings/ cautions that appear on the label when using any glue.

When the Measure Tool is activated, the last measurement mode used is automatically selected. This makes it easier to employ your most commonly used measurement mode.

If gluing a smooth surface like glass is tricky at the best of times, glass to glass may seem downright baffling. The trick is choosing the right glue that’s strong enough to secure non-porous surfaces. Epoxies are specially designed adhesives that form strong bonds between even the most difficult to glue materials and set in just 5 minutes. Most are two part products that require mixing, however there are pre-mixed versions available. Make sure to choose an epoxy that dries clear so you don’t end up with unsightly residue. Always remember to read the instructions and follow any warnings/ cautions that appear on the label when using any glue.

The measurement will appear as a blue line along with the value. It will disappear when you take another action in Revu (click away, take another measurement, press ESC, and so on).

In order to pick the right type of glue for your glass project there are several factors worth keeping in mind. These include the other surface you will be gluing the glass to, how quickly you need the bond to cure, or whether the bond needs to be waterproof.
