I use Bluebeam Cloud on my iPad with Sessions for field inspections. During inspections, I work with façade drawings and add notes, comments, markups, and photos directly to the drawings. I would appreciate the option to automatically save a copy of all photos captured within Bluebeam Cloud to the iPad's Camera Roll or…
There is no need to ask me to login to my account every week. Once logged in to the bluebeam review program, it should stay logged in until such time I log out, or my subscription expires.
Ive reached a point in my estimating/measurement workflow where everything i measure can now take place within the same profile. Its fantastic from an ease of use perspective, but it means the number of tools and tool chests i have is a very long list. Being able to add an extra layer of sorting/collapsing to batch…

When doing a mark-up on a drawing that has a scale of 1:50 then you want to copy that mark and paste it on another drawing, but it's scale is at 1:100. Is there a way to get around this? As the way it's done now, the length is wrong (double the length) when pasted from 1:50 to 1:100
Hi everyone! I'd like to bring up an accessibility feature that I believe could be very useful for many Bluebeam users. I work as an HVAC designer in Sweden and use Bluebeam Revu daily for reviewing drawings, technical specifications and project documentation. I also have dyslexia, and reading large amounts of technical…
I've been working on a collection of practical tools for Bluebeam Revu users, focused on low-voltage projects. The collection includes toolsets and symbols for CCTV, fire alarm systems, access control and other technical applications. The goal is simple: spend less time recreating symbols and organizing markups, and more…
So, after playing about with Max and Claude last night, I discovered a new way to stitch drawings together! Basically, there is now no need to use the new stitching feature in Max nor take snapshots and join them together yourself. Instead, you can create a skill in Claude and get everything done automatically - well that…
When I select a comment to change the status, the context menu disappears and I cannot change the status of a comment. I cannot change the status of my own comments, nor ones that others have added. What is going on?
Is there a way to remove pen smoothing on the desktop version? A recent update appears to have increased the smoothing on pen markups and smooths it to the point where the markups are unreadable. I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue or if this feature can be turned off or dialed back? Any help is…
It seems there is no way to control the sort order of documents in a session: This would be a great feature to add.. Thanks for any comments or suggestion!
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with 3rd party AI take off software for Lighting specifically? I've been looking for something that can count lights within spaces and still hold the formatting for exporting? Does Bluebeam Max with Claude AI offer any kind of automated take off capabilities? I have Revu 21.11…
Hello, Just a really simple question really. How do you add a border around a document in bluebeam? I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find the answer
More and more free PDF programs are able to create measurements, but when they open in Bluebeam, they are lines and texts, in a variety of combinations. With Bluebeam Max, it should be piece of cake to recognize them and convert them to true Bluebeam measurements. This needs to be a process that allows the user to filter…
The forced smoothing of pen tool line markup is a big backward step that is unnecessary, frustrating and wastes time. It should be removed and previous tool behavior reinstated. if smoothing is desirred, it should be a selectable property not an assumption that this is what the user wants or needs.
What's the benefit of Filter and Sort? Specific detail and why its grayed out. Is it based off of subscription level?
when entering text in bluebeam max markup list, why doesn't it auto save and create a suggested list as you type like it did with core?In Bluebeam Revu, the Max edition differs from Core by focusing on advanced structural workflows. If your text fields and Markups list aren't auto-completing or suggesting past terms, it is…
i am trying o add a new measurement to an existing polylength. so, i have done a poly and want to add a perpindicular line from the middle of the existing line and continue the length measurement
The issue I am running into is that there is no multiline or text wrapping of the displayed text within the Legend. I am trying to come up with a unique usage for displaying questions on drawings using custom markups and the Markups Legend. I currently run a PDF summary of all of my custom callouts to create a list of all…
I have some hyperlinks that have became un-editable? Somehow? Can anybody tell me why? I would like to get them cleaned up some. And BB is not letting me for whatever reason? See the attached screenshots of the properties for each.
I feel like Im missing something… Do I have the ability to zoom, pan Left / Right and Scroll UP / Down at the same time. (Without grabbing tha page with the hand, without selecting 'One Full Page' or Scrolling pages. I work with a lot of schematic line drawings and I regularly zoom in and have to trace wiring around the…
Are any libraries available for the commercial roofing industry I am looking for ways to help add components to low slope roof drawings as well as keep a standard set of tools for shop drawings
When I do a search and hyperlink checked. Sometimes I get a way oversized highlight box? I think it might be caused by an OCR issue? Is there a way to refine OCR to better recognize text? Or a way to fine tune it I mean. I have tried multiple OCR options to no end. See that attachment? Any ideas would be much appreciated.…
