Re: Organizing the folders within Studio Project
If I under this correctly you should be able to rename the files and add a number in front of the file which should automatically put the file in sequential order (See attached). Also, you can save your annotations by hitting F2 and save to your local drive. When ready, use F3 you reinstate your mark-ups / edits.
✴ Feature Highlight: Creating Custom Statuses
Did you know that you can set the status of any markup in the Markups list and create your own custom statuses?
To create a custom status, you first must create a custom model.
Click Window > Panels >
Markups
Then, on the Markups list, click the
icon on the Status column and click Manage Status.
Click Add below the Models list.
Enter a model name.
Now click your new model in the Models list. Then click Add. The State Properties box will appear.
Enter a name for the new status.
- You can also associate text with this status by checking Text and enter it in the corresponding field.
- To associate color with this status, check Color and choose your desired color.
Now your custom model will appear in the Set Status list as a submenu with its associated custom statuses inside it!
👇Comment down below:
- Do you prefer to use Bluebeam’s default statuses or create your own?
- When have custom statuses come in handy for you while working?

Re: page #s and labels
@Shelby, you can do it in Headers and Footers with "Bates Number".
Just use the following settings:
Number of Digits: 3
Start number: 1
Re: Rotating object_text size
Have you tried the Properties Panel with the markup(s) selected? Under Layout, you will find Rotation and the ability change the value out to the tenths place.
Re: Tool Labels Disappeared After Update
Hello everyone,
I reached out to support and was able to gain back the hover functionality by following these steps:
- Close Revu
- Open the C:\ProgramData\Bluebeam Software\Bluebeam Revu\21\Revu\FeatureFlags.xml
- Edit the ToolChestUseNew to:
<Feature Name="ToolChestUseNew" Enabled="False" Protected="True" />
- Save and reopen Revu
Please note that "ProgramData" is a different folder from "Program Features".
Summer has officially begun!
June 20th marks the first day of summer! The summer solstice is the longest day of the year, more daylight to get things done!
Do you prefer long summer days or are you more of a fall/winter person? What's your favorite season?

Re: Summer has officially begun!
Summer is my season, so I'm excited to get it started and then move into an enjoyable fall season as well.
Re: Materials take-off
Generally Speaking, the more you use Bluebeam the quicker and more efficient you'll naturally become at using it however a great place to start is understanding the toolbox functions. I'm in Roofing & Cladding and we have a number of different toolboxes for the various roofing & cladding build-ups we offer as a business. Understanding the full use of the take-off functions is also very beneficial.
Re: Tool Chest Locks
Recently done the same thing for our business… have built 28 different chests with an average of 25 items in each. Would be great to be able to lock this down so everything remains consistent.
Re: ✴️ Feature Highlight: Rotating Measurement Captions
I like this feature as it is makes life much easier when trying to layout a drawing especially when there is a lot going on. One feature I would like to see is that the text actively rotates on the page as I am trying to determine the angle I am looking for.
