Attached is a text box beneath two highlighter markups. Drawn on desktop using the mouse. Pen commitment interval is 100 ms. All highlighter markups' highlight property is active. The top highlighter markup is not multiplying with its underlying material. The bottom highlighter markup (modified to resemble a pen) is…
I think Bluebeam needs to make a Structural Engineering toolset. The linked website below has all the toolsets you could possibly need BESIDES structural. Things like beams, masonry blocks, anchor bolts, steel angles, rebar, welds, etc. should be available to us so that we can be more efficient.…
Is there a way to use sessions offline on a IPad or mobile device? I was at a site visit today in a basement and I got kicked out of my session when I lost signal and could not log back in till later in the walk through.
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…
I receive multiple emails daily notifying me of studio sessions ending soon or ended. I'm told the only way around this is to change the setup of each studio session. Can this be a global setting to do once instead of for each session?
When creating adjacent markups it would be helpful to see where the control points on the existing markup are located. While the current "snap to markup" option helps with this process it doesn't match every control point and it is easy to miss them, especially along a curve. As such, my suggestion would be to add an…
If I could figure out a way to sort these pop outs by date, it would make my life alot easier. It will not let me click any of the title blocs to sort? see pic.
When searching the action list for my places, I type in what I am looking for in the field. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't so well? Seems if you pause at all during the typing is does not return correctly? Anybody else experience this? Or, am I just doing something wrong?
If I have an Equipment list in a database or spreadsheet where every piece of equipment has a unique identifier and a drawing with that unique identifier on a plan location. Is there a way to link the two so that if a changed is change in the spreadsheet something on the plan changes color to track the status? We have…
My engineering firm prints documents from AutoCAD to PDF constantly, as most do. When we plot or publish the sheets, the bookmark matches the file name, which is also the layout name from AutoCAD (Page Number then Title in our case). The Page Label however has a [1] in front of every label. That is very frustrating to read…
I made a post about this here: Can the option to remove the indexing be added to BlueBeam? Or an even more powerful option, can we have access to the page labeling templates to set up our own? In most cases, I would probably want the Bookmark and/or File Name exactly. But I could see other options as well. This should also…

Recently copy text from a BB document to another format (Word/Excel/Google) pastes jibberish instead of text. Even after running OCR. Typically PDF was created by Word (or CAD). Anyone have ideas how to fix this?
Hi, Is it possible to create Bluebeam Spaces from Rooms that are located in a linked Revit model? Our workflow consists of a separate MEP model with the architectural model linked into it.

Anyone know where the setting lives for the bottom status bar items? My Page Scale and Page Size disappeared from my toolbar out of nowhere. Restarted Bluebeam and they came back, but now they're showing up twice. Once in the Navigation Bar Right, and again directly underneath it in what I'm guessing is the status bar. I…
I have files in studio, that I save report to. I then hyperlink to these files from the main drawings. Something is preventing me from saving them? All of a sudden? Any of you experience this? See screenshot. I have tried multiple file locations, they all behave the same.
I'm using the Individual to autoscale. Except I keep getting square inches instead of sq feet. Is there any way to change sq-in to sq-ft 'I'm using Bluebeam Revu x64 Complete Version 21.10 Thank you Rick or you can call me USA 209-986-6217 ontime@ctnontime.com

I am getting this error when I try to use the tool. I read online that it could be an issue with the PDF being corrupted but I downloaded the sample site plan that is used in the demonstration videos and I am getting the same error message. Anyone have an advice on how to deal with this issue?
