don't forget #3 in the status bar

I believe you can change this here:

If you've ever had to place a symbol on a drawing more than three times, you've probably wondered, "I wish I didn't have to keep clicking on the symbol every time I want to place it."

I have great news for you 😀

The Reuse Tools option keeps that tool selected for placing as many instances of a symbol as you need! There are two ways to activate Reuse Tools.

• In the Menu bar at the top of your Bluebeam window, you can go to Tools and find Reuse Tools at the end of the list.

• Within Preferences in the Revu menu, head to Tools again and check Reuse Tools under the Markup tab.

I use unrestricted sessions as well for the same reason, we don't know in advance all the participants. If bluebeam could log the users who join (this is true for restricted or unrestricted) then the owner could block out users that have joined. Ths wouldn't prevent a first join though as that needs to happen at least one time for Bluebeam to log the users.

Alternatively an option to add in a list of known emails to deny access, I don't like these though as this list now needs to be maintained.

However this then requires another question to @Andy Krogh, if you have participants that need to be blocked whould it not be better to start from a restricted session? Or start from a session that has reduced interaction? I would imagine the typical risk of an unwanted attendee would be the individual downloading the files (their markups are easily deleted if they're doing crayola work) so I would recommend setting up your unrestricted reviews with 'Save As' and 'Print' disabled. Then they are left with the less productive screenshot technique to copy the file.

@Luke Prescott I think a better solution would be to have a second toggle for unrestricted sessions that will prompt the Session Owner to grant access on first connection. Like this, but only shows up when you disable the restrict attendees option.

Another tab on the Sessions tab with a quick yes/no for access. This would only happen for Unrestricted session. The assumption is for restricted, you have deliberately picked your participants.
