Do you know❓️
I stopped printing drawings to walk the site. The old routine looked like this: a printed set under one arm, a pen in the other hand, every deviation marked in the margin as I walked the floor. By the time I got back to the office, that marked-up sheet had to be read back, interpreted, and re-typed into whatever tracker or…

PDF SEARCH FUNCTION TWEAKS
I use the search function to hunt down wall type tags / partition tags on architectural drawings. The blue highlighting of the search results is barely visible, so I zoom in very far and scrub through the results, each highlighted result ends up in some random corner of the window, why can't the search results center in…

Earthwork Cut & Fill Computation
Has anyone developed a practical method in Bluebeam Revu to calculate earthwork quantities from grid levels or contour drawings?

Change the outlined color of the currently viewed page in Thumbnails while in Dark Mode
The default Blue outline works great while the app is in Light Mode, but while in Dark Mode it becomes nearly impossible to see which page you are currently viewing, and when dealing with hundreds of very similar looking pages, it can be a pain to see, you can easily click on the wrong page, have to go back and find it…

Do you know ❓
I stopped emailing markups back and forth. For years that meant the same drawing existed in five different inboxes, each with its own set of comments, and nobody fully sure which version was the one to work from. Someone makes a decision on Tuesday, and the site doesn't see it until Thursday, if the email doesn't get…
