This is your chance to explore new features coming soon to Revu, share your feedback directly with our team, and help us shape the best version of Revu for your everyday workflows. Here are some of the features we'll be…
I am a consultant and at a company I work with they have multiple projects contained within a Revit model. They use Collections within revit to be able to organize same named sheets that are standards driven for sequencing IDs. When attempting to utilize the Bluebeam "Add-In" print settings you are unable to see…
Can you please add an option to, by default, open pdfs as new instances of Revu instead of as tabs in a single instance? This would enable a more streamlined workflow that I've become familiar with from using other applications combined with MS Windows' built-in windows management system. Note: I'm aware of the article at…
Hi everyone! We're bringing back a community favorite for July and August—Shortcuts! This challenge will run for a couple months, as it's a popular feature. The last time we ran a shortcuts challenge was back in October 2024, and a lot has changed since then. New community members have joined, workflows have evolved, and…
Current Behavior: Revu Studio Session permissions are configured on a Session-by-Session basis. There is currently no way to establish default reviewer permissions that automatically apply when creating or joining a Session. Requested Improvement: Allow users or organizations to establish default permissions for Session…
We currently deploy a solution that has a powershell script that copies our company made stamps to the C:\ProgramData\Bluebeam Software\Bluebeam Revu\21\Stamps folder. This has been working fine for a long time. With 21.10, we noticed that our script was failing. Turns out that on new installs of 21.10 (so not an update),…
Would it be possible to add a option to split one polyline into two sections.
I like to have the bookmarks be the [Sheet number] - [Sheet name] format. However, I like the page label being just the [Sheet number]. It would be great if I could create page labels from the bookmark first number of characters or up until a space or dash. Currently I get around this by creating the page label from a…
The Dimmer Tool On live projects, I often work with drawings that are packed with information. Sometimes, I just need to focus on one specific area without all the surrounding details distracting me. That’s where I use the Dimmer Tool. 📍Where I use it During drawing reviews, client discussions, coordination meetings, or…
as a Practitioner and workflow explorer, i like to support the fellow people and solve queries by screen recoriding videos instead of texts and snapshots, sometimes text and snapshots leads to more conversations but a small 30sec video can be better understanding and time saving, so I kindly request if possible please…
Whenever I need to copy a link from a pdf I need to go to Properties, then Edit… then copy the actual link from there. This is a bit ridiculous to be honest : ) Please can you add a button, feature, contextual menu, etc. anything really that would allow the users to copy links more easily? BB help team offered some…
When placing text box markups in PDFs where you've rotated the view via CTRL-Shift-+ or -, the text is always aligned to the PDF's original view. This requires you to waste time rotating and re-sizing the text box. It would be fantastic to have the option of having the text aligned to be right-side-up for your current view.
Adjust grouping: Line: Color, Weight, Style, and Opacity are grouped Fill: Color, Highlight, Opacity, and Hatch are grouped Add "Tool Chest: Recents" menu: Add quick select at bottom of properties (recent uses)specific to mark-up

Logitech has been releasing some very customizable tools such as the MX4 mouse and the MX Creative Console. They have a marketplace where you can download preconfigurations anbd plug-ins for the Logitech tools. I was a bit taken back when I didn't see Bluebeam on the list. It would be great if the Bluebeam team came up…
Hello Bluebeam Support, Would it be possible to see a 'Studio Session Statistics' Reports by sessions? (I can see them under Studio - Sessions, but I also would like to download as CSV if possible) Thanks, A native Export Session Statistics to CSV/Excel option if possible, that would be very useful.
Hi All, I have been using the same Set/.bex file for months now with no problems. However, today it will not open on Revu. I can open other Set/.bex files just fine. Are there any troubleshooting/ rebuild step out there I can try? I'm running Revu Complete Ver. 21.10 on Windows 11. Thanks ahead, Ian
Has anyone else experienced this? We use the person + icon within a studio session when we want to invite extra attendees. Their email addresses are added and then staff types a message which often includes critical information for the new attendees to get up to speed. But they are reporting that sometimes their invitation…
I had a number of instances where I would do counts on say fire doors and separate count common doors single separate common doors double and later find that Bluebeam has added them all together as 1 type. Seems to be when using the same shape and colour for the count. This could be expensive exercise if not picked up over…
I’m developing an AI automation workflow for construction PDF drawings and would like to integrate it with Bluebeam Revu/Studio. The workflow is: Our AI detects a zone/slab region on a PDF. It generates the polygon coordinates for that region. We want to programmatically create an Area Measurement markup in Bluebeam using…
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…

Hi, we have a dozen seats and do markups on Studio. We are trying to institute an office-wide color-coded status model. I can set it up for a single user but I am confused about how the custom status model is related to the profile, and how the profiles are shared with other users. Could somebody explain the workflow…
Bluebeam Revu is unexpectedly closing when I have two instances open simultaneously. The crash occurs randomly while I'm working, causing me to lose progress. Has anyone encountered this issue, and are there any known fixes or settings that might help?
OCR has not worked for over a month. is there a fix coming out? I have been getting this error:
