Recent Changes
Enhanced drawings tool user interface (05/20/2025)
Procore has modernized the Drawings tool by removing the old right-side panel and relocating its components to the main page, aligning with Helix design patterns. The Drawings tool now offers a more intuitive and less cluttered interface, enhancing user experience by providing more room for data in the list view. To learn more, see Upload Drawings, Download Drawings, Email Drawings, Bulk Edit, Drawing Revisions, Locations, and Drawing Reports.
NEW COPY/PASTE AND DUPLICATE FEATURES FOR MARKUPS IN DRAWINGS TOOL ON MOBILE (05/20/2025)
The mobile application now offers enhanced Copy/Paste and Duplicate functionalities for markups on both iOS and Android. These improvements allow you to efficiently copy existing markups and paste them to other locations within the same drawing or across different drawings on your mobile device, and enable duplication of selected markups. By refining these mobile markup functionalities, you can now manage and replicate markups efficiently, reducing repetitive tasks and improving workflow in the field.
NEW COPY AND DUPLICATE BUTTONS FOR MARKUPS IN DRAWINGS TOOL ON WEB (12/16/2024) 
The Drawings tool has two new actions for markups–copy and duplicate! Copy saves the markup(s) to your clipboard so you can paste it into a different drawing. If both drawings are the same dimensions, the markup automatically pastes to the same coordinates as the original drawing. Duplicate creates a duplicate of the markup and pastes it near the original in the same drawing, so you can move it to the desired location within the drawing. Selecting more than one markup at a time allows you to take these actions in bulk. Find these new buttons in the menu that appears when you click on a markup, and start speeding up your markup process today! See Edit Drawing Markups.
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'.
