Hi All, Would it be possible to get a column that shows the perimeter segment values. I often have to know the min width and max width of an object in reference to the object not the horz or vert plane. I do use width and height columns, but this gives the wrong result with the rotated 45' object. Perhaps if it was listed…
Hi everyone, In light of the new ADA Title II regulations, many state and local governments — and the vendors who work with them — need their digital documents to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 24, 2026 (or 2027 for smaller jurisdictions). This includes PDFs that end up on public websites or portals. I’m trying to…
Tool: Quantity Link (Excel Integration) 🔹One feature I don't see talked about enough is Quantity Link. 🔹Instead of manually copying quantities from your Markups List into Excel, Quantity Link creates a live connection between Revu and your spreadsheet. As markups and quantities change in the PDF, your Excel workbook can be…
Hi, When i am inputting data in to a custom column, i have to always double click in to each item and input the data. The data is different every time, so i can't do multiple items as the same time. I know it seems small but i am imputing 100s of bits of data in and every time i am taking my fingers away from the keyboad…

I am having an issue with Bluebeam on the Web. I have uploaded a pdf document and when I try to open it in BB, it never loads. Any suggestions?
I have downloaded Claude, verified the free version works with BB Max, Connected github and also set the MCB preferences in MAX for Claude connection. I have the 21.9 version uploaded and also have logged out of Claude desktop and BB and logged in again. Claude continues to tell me it is a push waiting from BB to have the…
In the Org Admin portal, at new account creation, while the account already exists as disabled, it would be helpful if the Org Admin would get better messages than one of these two: There was a problem processing your request. Error creating new contact, error duplicate record. Contact already exists. Best solution to this…
Good morning. I know that one of the items that are (or were) being worked on is adding toolsets to the iPad. I just wanted to follow up on this and see how it's going? Is this still something that is being worked on? Or is this less popular and being held off for later? It would be a big deal for what I do, but I know…
Hey everyone, for my business I am constantly highlighting electrical loads on prints. Right now I am using the highlighter to trace the dashed lines from fixture to fixture. I was wondering if there was an easier way to do this than freehand. These are not straight lines, they are curved. Thanks.
I am relatively new to bluebeam and I am working on a set of drawings. One of the drawings has recently stopped me from editing it. I have a lot of shapes and work put into it. I can still edit the text but only if I got to edit → PDF content → edit text. All the shapes and symbols are locked into place I cant select any…
Hi all, I've been locked out of Bluebeam since yesterday morning - my subscription for Revu Complete doesn't expire until September. The Org Admin portal shows me as having a current subscription but also as 'unpaid collaborator'. I signed up for a trial of Bluebeam Max a while back but was unable to download the app.…
what is the most efficient way to mark and count objects in a blue print. In my case I might be counting ceiling vents or fan coil units. I would need to mark them all the same but would need to be able to total their Quantity on the spreadsheet.
Posting here as a just in case… All users are slowing being changed from Complete to Unassigned randomly. In admin portal they are assigned correctly and we are paid up, renewed through April 2027. I am not getting any answers through SUpport via email or calling in and status page shows no issues. Anyone else seeing an…

Right now this is done manually in Revu, measuring each element…
I do a good amount of takeoff in bluebeam and noticed an annoying issue after updating to 21.7. It used to be that you could use the CNTRL + Shift keys to do a straight takeoff line (shift key) and avoid any control lines or points on the drawing (CNTRL key) to get to a precise spot on the drawing. After the update, the…
