3 Only users with 'Admin' permissions can subscribe or unsubscribe other users to the Drawings tool.
4 Users can only see their own measurements that they have added to drawings using the measurement markup tools. See Add Measurements to a Drawing.
Below are the notable changes to the project's Drawings tool.
Recent Changes
Generate and Print QR Codes for Drawings (05/20/2024)
You can generate QR codes for your project's drawings, and print them to post them at a job site. Users can scan the QR Code with the Procore Mobile app and view the drawing on their mobile device. See Generate and Print QR Codes for Drawings, Scan a QR Code (Android), and Scan a QR Code (iOS).
More Precise Measurements on Drawing Markups (07/10/2023)
Measurement markups added to drawings will now show fractions of measurements within a precision of 1/32. See Add Measurements to a Drawing. These measurements can be viewed on all Procore applications (Web, iOS, and Android), and on drawings that have been downloaded as PDFs with markup. See Download Drawings.
Note: This change does not affect existing drawing measurement markups created before July 10, 2023.
Advanced Option for Detecting Revisions After Underscores in Drawing Numbers (05/08/2023)
Procore has updated an advanced option in the Upload Drawings modal to allow revisions to be pulled from drawing numbers with underscores (_). See Upload Drawing Revisions. The 'Contains Revision' checkbox has been changed to a 'Drawing No. Contains Revision' drop-down menu, where you can now select if drawing numbers contain revisions or not, and if the revisions are after the last decimal or the last underscore.
Note: As part of this update, the 'Drawing Revision' field under Advanced Options was renamed to 'Default Revision'.
