Hey Bluebeamers! I'm Reesa, one of the product managers here at Bluebeam. We've been working on some ideas around how notifications and updates show up in Bluebeam solutions, and we're curious about how this feels for you day-to-day. We know some of you are in the trenches of your email inbox, setting up custom filtering…
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…
I have not found a way to create bookmarks for a spec book that only includes the first page for each spec section. I do not want to bookmark individual pages within a spec section. The bookmarks should mirror the table of contents.
I'll start by saying that I'm concerned with how the Bluebeam Cloud app for iPad functions compared to the old Bluebeam iPad app for our companies work flow. We have a set of custom .btx files we use to create punch lists during deficiency reviews on our iPads. How do I load our custom .btx files into the Bluebeam Cloud…
I have 14 different sequenced markups on this set of plans. Each has a different shape/color and count. I cannot figure out, nor find the answer to, how to create a legend that does NOT list all of 900+ markups. I need a simple legend showing one of each markup and how many there are. I've unsuccessfully tried various…
Show us your most used Tool Chest. How many custom tools do you have? What's the one tool you couldn't work without❓ Winners will be punished by "Heartful Wishes"❤️
I am exporting my PDF from GIS Pro - which has a raster aerial and then vector polygons on top which have a transparent fill. I can view the pdf in Revu and everything looks as it should (Raster aerial and transparent vector polygons). However, when I go to reduce file size in Revu, my vector polygons get a solid fill…
I’m trying to determine whether I’m encountering a limitation in Bluebeam iOS 1.31 or if there is a different workflow I should be using. In Revu Desktop, I created custom Count tools with unique Subjects, Labels, colors/symbols, and other properties. I saved them to a Tool Set, exported the .btx file, and imported that…
I have had two separate custom tool chests disappear. I used one for multiple months without any problems, then it disappeared and I could not locate it to reopen or reinstall it. Created another one, that again worked for awhile, but then suddenly disappeared without warning. Very frustrating. Anyone else had a similar…
Hi, does anyone know why the result checkbox is missing? I tried ticking select all and replacing it, but nothing changes.
I am currently experimenting with using the cloud (web) based version of Revu on my Macbook. I notice that I can import tool sets now but don't see a way to import fonts. I only see 3 fonts (Helvetica, Courier, and Times-Roman) which is very very limited. I don't see a way to save default versions of my tools…
On version 21.9+, the filter feature was taken away and replaced with an AI search assistant. The problem is that the new search assistant is not helpful at all, it keeps bringing up unrelated information and makes our work way more difficult than it needs to be. Version 21.6 was the last one to keep the filter feature…
It would be helpful if Import Markups had the option to also import the Header & Footer from another PDF. My workflow is to print updated calculation packages to PDF and import the markups from the previous version. The header and footer stay the same every time, but I have to recreate them after each import. In addition,…
I'd like to request that when a document's tab is pulled out of the tab bar ("detached" from the main window) that the resulting window includes the full user interface (tool bars, page navigation, etc..) independent of the parent window. This is as opposed to the current system which generates only the viewport and shares…
I use Revu for a multitude of tasks. In particular, I am asking about Layers functionality and features. Why is there not a one-click function to check all Layers per column (Lock, Print, Export) in the Layers tab? I use and create layers on product data sheets and change the filenames to have an extension of _Premarked.…
Hello, What are the key differences between the "Complete" and "Unassigned" versions available in Bluebeam software, including their respective advantages and disadvantages?
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…
When I create a place in a studio folder. It opens to the correct place and view on a pc. But when trying to use the link on an IPad it takes you to the first page of the document the link is in, instead of the view? You still have to do some manual searching? Is this possibly a setting? I have tried both with relative…
My company is currently trialing Bluebeam MAX and I have been testing the features of integrating Bluebeam Studio markups into our Revit models. However, after getting the model connected to the session I am not able to see the markups that are made in the session on the corresponding sheet in the model and only see the…
How will Bluebeam integrate AI in their software? Is this already part of it? if so where and how can we use it.
Is there a way to start a text box and add a selection for bullets or numbers. This would help out when typing notes and /or keeping things in chrono order
Is it possible to cut out an odd shape on one sheet and overlay it on to another and still be able to manipulate the original cut out shape? Such as rotating the shape and adjusting the size?
Hi everyone, I’m the Product Manager for Studio and I’m looking for feedback on the 9‑digit ID that appears next to each Session (and Project) in the Sessions view in Revu. This is the ID you can share so others can join a Session or Project directly by entering the number. (Going forward I'll just say Session to spare you…
