Re: Be Among the First to Try Bluebeam Max (Powered by Revu 21.8)
Hi Matias, this is great feedback, thank you for bringing it to my attention. If possible, can you please submit this as a bug in the test project? I'd like to assign it to a team member for review. You can submit a bug via this link:
Re: Revu 21 ARM 64 Beta Test Kicks Off Today
Hi. The ARM64 beta has ended, but Revu 21.6 has released and it has support for ARM64. For the time being we have recommended that anyone with an ARM64 device migrate to 21.6 as it is more stable than the test build we were using for the ARM64 project. We do plan to have another ARM64 beta in the future, but for now your best bet is to download the latest version of review here: https://www.bluebeam.com/download/
Re: Convert shape to Area
Related to this conversion from markup to measurement is the location of the object stroke. For markups, the stroke is inside the object outline, whereas for areas, the stroke is centered on the object outline. See attached screenshot with identically sized area and rectangle. You can really see the difference in where the stroke is located.
This difference is quite annoying when it comes to drawing in Revu. Converting from one type to another will change the stroke location, presumably. My first preference would be for a toggle in the properties pane to specify where the stroke is aligned (inside, centered, outside). If that is not possible, my second preference would be to just standardize and have the stroke for all objects aligned inside the outline.
Re: Office Add-ins not working on 21.5 and previous version
I can only speak to my own workstation…

Re: Measure LF of a wall that is curved
If you use Polylength, you can convert lines to arc segments by using the right-click menu. Then use the control points get it to align with the curve.
Re: Update Question
Are you looking to have a shortcut pinned to your taskbar @Tami R? Seems as if I've had to add that back in when I update the program. My pin shows up as the "round R" logo:
I establish this setting by typing "Revu" in the search box at the bottom of my screen, right clicking on the "Bluebeam Revu 21 App" at the top, and then by selecting "pin to Taskbar" (mine shows unpin as it's already there):
Hope this helps. 😎
Re: Bluebeam on iPad
So you are saying that you're going to kill revue BEFORE adding one of the most critical features for many users? What are you? Microsoft? I'm freaking out because I lean heavily on this for creating SWPPP reports and the locality and state governments won't care to hear "Oh! Well, bluebeam is going to get to that eventually." I have to do two inspections a week.. you are potentially adding HOURS onto each inspection by the feature kill.
Re: Deleting Markup List Items that Import as a Default
I'm finding that the AutoCAD SHX text is locked and I can't flatten it. How do I unlock it so I can flatten it?

Re: How can I effectively stop Revu from selecting the layer-based content that has 'gray grips'?
If flattening is not desired — or if you are not able to flatten them — be aware that the gray grips probably mean that those markups are locked. So try unlocking them if flattening, etc., is not working.
