Re: 🗓️ June 2025 Challenge - Revu Remix!
I used Bluebeam on the iPad for a research project years back. We wanted to see how our current office space was being used to help plan for different types of spaces at our new office.
I took employee photos and placed them in a toolset (each one included additional information like their title and market sector they worked in). Then, I had a PDF of the current office floor plan, and several times a day, I would place the photos of the person where they were.
I used Status to indicate if they were working digitally or analog. And if it was anything of note, I used Capture to take a photo.
Since everything was date/time stamped, I was able to export to a .csv file and create a heat map of where our staff tends to migrate and how that typically changes throughout the day!
(I actually presented this at CHI BUG a few years ago 😉)

Re: Copy-Paste Issues
In our case, we realised when a user has Citrix Workspace app. (v25 and up, released 15th May) connected to a remote desktop, Bluebeam's paste function greys out on the local computer. We downgraded Workspace to v24 LTS and no longer experiencing the issue.
My assumption is Workspace's copy and paste function has something to do with it. Only an assumption though, not yet had the chance to investigate further but I thought it might help mentioning.
✴ Feature Highlight: Split View
Did you know that you are able to break up your workspace into up to sixteen multiple splits that can be synchronized?
Here’s how:
Find the Navigation bar at the bottom of the workspace or in the View menu.
- To split the window vertically, click
or press CTRL + 2. - To split the workspace horizontally, click
or press CTRL + H. - To remove the current split, click
or press CTRL + SHIFT + 2.
You can also synchronize pan and zoom settings and actions across all of your split views!
Locate View menu or
Sync menu on the Status bar and select a synchronization mode.
Synchronization modes:
Synchronize Document -> Allows you to synchronize the viewing windows when displaying PDFs in side-by-side Split View mode or in a detached window by page index.
Synchronize Page -> Allows you to synchronize viewing windows in side-by-side Split View mode without regard to page index. This gives you the ability to synchronize different pages across documents or different pages in the same multi-page document.
Let us know below:
Have you found Split View especially useful for certain types of projects or disciplines?

Re: Copy-Paste Issues
@everyone
If you are experiencing this issue please follow the bluebeam instructions in the snip below and send them all the logs possible to support@bluebeam.com. They are having trouble replicating the issue and the more logs we send them the more data they will have to find a resolution. I could not get the "Email Logs to Support" button to work so I opened the log folder.
Cheers!
Re: Bluebeam for android
Registered for Bluebeam Community just so I could echo Stuart's April 2nd post. Is there an update on Android operability? We bought some Galaxy Tab Active4 Pros for Revu use in the field. It is a monumental stretch to say it's currently lacking some functionality: it's essentially worthless.

Re: 📢 What's New: Revu 21.6 (Updated)
Hi Vince,
If you need to revert back to Revu 21.5, you can find the download link here:
If you have any issues along the way, please reach out to our Support team at support@bluebeam.com
Re: Copy-Paste Issues
Thanks for the update. I am on a Windows 10 machine so that is strange. I know it's on the BB radar so that is good. Frustrating little bug nonetheless.
Re: Paste in Place not pasting IN PLACE - help!
Hi Kyle - I was definitely surprised they couldn't sort it! But like I said, not too upset. Maybe it will get mended in a future update.
Copy-Paste Issues
What's up ya'll?! Does anyone else have a recurring copy/paste issue where you are not allowed to copy a markup and paste onto a different sheet within the same file? This has only recently appeared. The issue is resolved when I restart my computer but simply restarting bluebeam does not solve the issue. I am on the latest version 21.5 x64 Complete.
Re: Combining legends to include all items
Go to your markup bar and multi-select (can just hit "ctrl+a" to select all markups in the bar) right click, add to legend
