SI Tip of the Day - don't forget to reset revision format

If you have updated to the new version of SpecsIntact that was recently released, just a quick reminder -
 
Time to re-customize font settings for revision marks per UFC 1-300-09N Design Procedures 10-4.3 on page 71 of pdf:

10-4.3 Specifications or RFP Development.

Provide edited, red-lined specification sections, showing deletions from and additions to the master guide specification sections. Red-line other parts of the RFP when required by the contract. When using SpecsIntact, deletions should be shown in bold print and lined out. Additions should be shown in bold print, italicized, and underlined. This special editing feature will have to be reset each time SpecsIntact program is updated. To do this, open a job; go into a section and select “Format.”
I'll have to pass along a feature request that the program could be taught to either (a) remember the user's settings (preferred), or (b) at least have default settings that correlate with UFC required formatting -- instead of requiring us to remember to change it back every time we upgrade!

  1. Okay, I have never done this on any project that I have worked on. I may in breech of our contract but I have never gotten a comment on it either.

    I agree with you on this one Chris! SI needs to coordiante their software to meet the UFC required formating. Yet another software request?
