I am a Bluebeam power user who relies heavily on macros and custom keyboard shortcuts to improve speed and precision in my workflow. I would like to suggest several enhancements to drawing and markup controls that would significantly improve efficiency for advanced users. Ive been thinking about these for a while so this…
Hi everyone! Bluebeam Max has officially arrived, and this month’s challenge is all about exploring. Whether you've spent a few minutes with it, interested in trying it, or have already started incorporating it into your workflow, we'd love to hear about it! This challenge is your chance to share what you've explored in…
Good afternoon, So when the owner of a map or document shares access as a session, other people can edit and add. But the issue is the owner can't delete anything they add or have done. You need to have the user that put it in go in and delete or edit to fix. Is there a way to allow the owner or admin of that session that…
Any way to provide a count of the selected measurement and show the value in the bottom of the screen?
I'm not sure what the technical challenges are for doing this but it would make the Bluebeam MCP and Claude integration a lot more useful if Claude had the ability to see symbols on drawings and apply markups, particularly count tools, based on that information. Right now it can only see the text information which can be a…
I am having an issue with Revu. It is not every time I open the program, but enough to be annoying and I am wondering if it is just me or are others having the same issue. All too often, when starting Revu, the first tool only in several of the toolboxes is replaced with a corrupted tool with attributes of different tools…
Is there someone who can help me get my editing features back for me (undo, redo, copy, cut)? I've tried everything and no luck. These just suddenly grayed out on me and I cannot work on my projects any longer. My subscription is up-to-date.
We are Fire Risk Assessors so mainly we use BlueBeam (Revu 21.9) to colour in the centre of walls to signify the fire resistance we want. On one drawing the walls are thin black lines, not matter how much you zoom in via Bluebeam. But if you open the PDF file on various PDF reader the wall lines are now each about a third…
Would it be possible that, when clicking through a text search in Bluebeam Revu, the documented centers on the highlighted text and something more bold than light blue highlights your search result on the documents? It is kind of a pain to find where the highlighted search result is on construction documents with tags…
When running a search function on a sheet, the window should center on the item when selecting the result. Often when searching the highlight shows it nearly off page view and you have to manually recenter the image to see what you need to view. It would be incredibly more efficient to have the result center on the page…
Hi BB Team, Requesting an update regarding inclusion of justify alignment with similar function to Microsoft Word. Thank you.
HELP! I have created elements consisting of a filled shape with text inside. The text is on top so that it shows, but sometimes (without provocation), the text is blocked by the filled shape. As you can see below, the correct element is on the left, and the element on the right has changed (all by itself). Here's another…
Typically I need to make the same space I have created on one page and add to another page. If I copy paste it usually comes in not in the same location on the page and takes time to move and redraw the same space. Also wondering if you can change the color of the space when initially making the Space to differentiate for…
Would like to see the File Name as Page Label setting in the stapler options. It is found in the File; Combine but not when combining directly from a Microsoft window. They are essentially the same tool, are they not? They should have the same options. Took me a little bit of work to discover they are not the same.
Currently, polyline markups retrieved via the MCP list_markups_in_pdf tool only return a bounding box (x, y, width, height) — not the actual vertex geometry of the line. For conduit runs and other polyline markups, the bounding box is nearly useless for spatial analysis because it tells you nothing about where the line…
I would love a feature to be able to Favorite Sessions. And even better, be able to make Session working folders and sort them. I use so many sessions for so many projects that sorting through the long list to look for a specific one can be challenging. Sometimes it's easier for me to find the invite again rather than…
I would like to suggest being able to change the color of individual Bluebeam Windows - just the bar at the top would do it. I commonly have 3 or 4 open all day so I can have multiple Sessions open at once. It would be incredibly helpful to be able to change one to blue, one to yellow, etc so I can easily tell which one I…

I need a simple stamp that lets me click in the stamp and change the text once I add it to a toolset. In the past, I would just create a stamp and add text. The text would be dynamic. I save it to a toolset ungrouped and when I use it from a toolset, I can then change the text in the stamp. But, now I can no longer change…
We have come across this problem in the past and usually the issue is that the custom columns in the different documents are different, however in this case it looks like they are the same. Any ideas how to get the properties to paste in the correct order
Does anyone know if this is possible, as in Trimble Live Count. What I call a disconnected length measurement is when I want to measure all the 3/4" conduit in a room, I need to be able to go from one row to the next without the length being added to the total
Is there a way to customize the look of exported bookmarks? We would like to create a table of contents page that displays various information from a series of drawings (e.g. drawing number, drawing name, approval date). I've only been able to create the standard looking Bookmark Summary page and can't figure how to…
Hi, I am working with documentation and am used to setting Initial View or Start View on the documents so that they open with bookmarks visible to others who open the document. Usually I can find this under Document Properties (Ctrl+D) But it does not appear in BlueBeam. Is this a function that is not available in the…
Hello community, I am new to using this program as well as doing this job. I am a career changer from education to this. I am pretty tech savvy but used ChatGPT to support in learning the few things I have learned in Bluebeam. I want to do the best I can in my new role. Sorry it's long :( I created a tool chest but think…
My boss gave me a file to practice since I am new. When I try to set the scale it gives me this error message, and will only let me set the scale to one page at a time. Can someone please tell me what I need to do to fix this?
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…
