Hi everyone! Welcome to the November 2024 Monthly Challenge! Last month we explored time-saving shortcuts, and the community shared some fantastic tips. Check it out by visiting this link. This month, we’re all about Dark Mode! We’ve heard a lot of feedback about this feature in the community and we were happy to deliver.…
This week, we're highlighting the Flatten tool in Revu! Flattening lets you lock in your markups, making them a permanent part of your PDF. It’s a great way to finalize documents and ensure that all annotations are secure before sharing. Do you or your team use the Flatten feature in Revu? What benefits have you…
Hello, I would love the ability to customize the 5 fonts that appear at the top of the font menu. These could be either pinned manually (my top choice) or automatically populated based on my most used fonts.
Feedback regarding Mac support.
This app has been a great companion over the years. But let’s face it. The interface is old and it hasn’t received the attention from the developers that it deserves. For nearly a decade it’s been stuck in version 3. For us who really enjoyed Revu for iOS over the years, what can we expect in the future? Especially in…
While I'm opening PDF's with Blue Beam, when I attempt to return to my Windows File Explorer window by selecting it on my Taskbar, the window will not appear. This forces me to minimize BB before I can see my File Explorer window again. This is a minor bug but it's quite annoying.
I have BluBeam Revu 21(21.2.0.1883) deployed on many machines virtual and physical. For some reason the eye dropper tool will not work on any of the machines. I have gone through the article related to security and color modes but cannot come up with a solution. They eyedropper will not work even on a blank document where…

New Outlook will eventually be the default Microsoft Mail app and it only supports web-based add-ins. Since many people are starting to use New Outlook in organizations, I hope your COM add-ins get converted to web based soon so it can continue to be used. Thank you.
I'd like to be able to copy (CTRL-C) an object from a checked-in document. Right now I'll check-out the document but I have to make sure to undo the check-out, it's just a hassle
I have a .bex file (aka Bluebeam Sets) that I had been able to print the latest revisions just fine… until recently. Now, when anyone on the team goes to print the latest revisions, the Print diolog seems to list all the pages for each combined PDF, and only print the first chunk of pages. (The example below shows eight…
After 7 days of inactivity? Ok I get there is maybe a security reason because we're all stuck on cloud but this is getting very irritating, especially when I'm busy just trying to complete a quick task with a program I already paid for. Instead of getting work done, I have to dig up passwords.
The drawing is scaled properly, and when utilizing the lineal dimension tool, the lineal dimension is correct. When using the perimeter tool, it calculates the length twice as long as the lineal dimension. Please advise.
I have some partition drawings in PDF I would like converted to objects I can edit in BB Revu.
I'm currently trying to find a document control solution and would love to know what others are using. I know that Sets create a drawing log, but it is a laborious process and I am looking for something more streamlined. At one point, the cloud tool could management documents and revisions, but it looks like that is no…
Hello all, I am thinking of switching to a MacBook Pro from my ThinkPad Workstation Laptop. I do not really want to make this change but my phone is an iPhone. Some things I have read say that Revu is not usable on iOS. Is this true? Does anyone use iOS with a similar version as I have? Do the features all still work? Any…
In the past, the cloud had the option for a little punchlist dot icon that I could place on the plan, and attach a photo and notes to that icon. With the new updates, that icon is no longer there, and I have to place images directly on the plan, which is not ideal. Especially in tight spaces with several markups, there is…
When in the field with my iPad it makes duplicate copies and saves the data I input on the duplicate instead of the original. I then have to delete the original and rename the duplicate when I get back to my desk. How do I stop that from happening?
Hello, we are looking for a program to create polylines with seperate measurement from segment to segment - so we found bluebeam. The next Challenge is to get the measurment of the segments into a *.csv I finally found the marking list where i can find a export - but no split for the measurments of the segments - so I hope…
Do I always have to download the files from Studio to upload them in Procore?
Hello, I am a long time user of Bluebeam studio sessions ( 6 months since last used ) and relatively new when it comes to creating studio sessions. we are setting up review sessions for a new project and i have set up a dummy session to ensure the actual reviews go well. I have been trying to both setup and access studio…
I am having a problem with our one computer that is in our main conference room for presentations, collaboration etc.. It gets stuck when trying to logon for a new user for BlueBeam. Starts the logon process, but seems to block the MFA portion of the SSO or gets lost behind the main screen and sometimes produces a can't…
Is there a way to connect Bluebeam API with Oracle Unifier and How ? Though Bluebeam Studio Prime is not available for the time being. How to integrate both the softwares.. Is there any solution guys..? Please help
I've been away from Revu for a few years and just picking it up again. I am getting pretty frustrated that I can't find out how to enter a total for my legend at the bottom of my legend's individual source quantities. (this probably isn't a new thread, again just couldn't find anything and I'm wasting loads of time).…
Can I assign a drop-down item, for example "glass inspection" to specific boxes, and "caulking" to other specific boxes?
Hey community of master Bluebeamers, Im hoping you all can help me with an issue or rather lack of knowledge that i am having in regard to Fillable forms. Presently i have a spreadsheet in excel that i have mail merged to a word document to make a pdf which spits out a specific text format (Blue text of a specific size…
Hi All, How is everyone tackling creating their own electrical plans ie power and lighting? Are there any tips or tricks that you can share? Apart from what's already on the program are there any other symbols we can download? Thankyou, Michael
I make a lot of PDF forms and BB's feature to "automatically create form fields" is time saving, so long as I want it to Justify Left all form fields and set the text to Helvetica Font Size 9. I find I want the majority of my forms to be AUTO font size and I want them CENTERED. I can't seem to sort out how to edit my BB's…
How does one view and export the log of a user and their activity in Bluebeam sessions? Ideally, need to look at all markups and sessions joined from a specific user.
