Re: 📢 Upcoming Community Interface and Navigation Updates!
Oh, I'm fine and figured there would be some issues. Just wanted to make sure to say something just in case. Thanks Marco! The changes have been pretty interesting. I'm excited to see the "final" product.

Hi @bcostlow. We're moving things around, so you'll see spme inconsistencies here and there until everything is properly organized. Sorry for any confusion!

Re: Fill/Paint Bucket Tool
Hmm… I think dynamic fill does what you're looking for. You can use the Polygon Markup option and then choose the setting for the markup that you want. A good way to streamline this would be to create custom markup tools that have the polygon markup properties set how you like. Then, when you click the down arrow, next to the polygon markup button of the dynamic fill floating bar, you can select the tool you would like to use. Then just use the dynamic fill tool as usual. Now you have an auto-filled area that appears in your markups list.
Also, you can select multiple options to create, so if you want a space created, a polygon and a volume, it can create all three at once. Just highlight each one with the options you want, use the dynamic fill, and then click apply and it will make all options selected.
Re: Custom Stamp - text plus 20% opacity .png file
When you go to print the pdf, if you click on the [Advanced] button at the bottom of the window, the "Advanced Printing" dialog box opens. If you look through the 'Printing Engine:' options, a description of each appears at the bottom of that window. I think the Image option might get the opacity right, but then it's a larger file and loses things like vector data. Maybe mess around with those options and see if any work best for you?
Re: Combined Compare & Overlay
Yes! What a great idea!
It would be awesome if this could be selected and executed automatically, exactly as you've illustrated. Hopefully someday…but in the meantime, I'm actually going to try this out by manually exporting/importing the markups from the Compare set into the Overlay set, and then edit the properties of the clouds, just as you've done in your snapshot. Because, while the overlay by itself is extremely useful to spot changes, it is also very easy to overlook small subtle changes, such as the one you've shown. This combined functionality would be immensly helpful.

Re: Scroll vs Zoom
This is good to know, thanks! I've been using Bluebeam for 25 years and never realized I could toggle between Zoom and Scroll in this way.

Re: Scroll vs Zoom
Good looking out, @Luke Shiras. I like to go over the preferences with new users too, so that their default action makes the most sense to them and then make sure they know they can toggle the wheel function by holding CTRL.
Re: Allow longer file names and longer paths
As a follow up, I submitted a support ticket through Revu, and Technical Support responded back confirming that this is not currently supported.
