I forgot to circle back, but this was addressed in Revu 21.3!

I use this software for quick sketches to send to clients frequently and wish more than anything that there was an option for rounded rectangles! It would be super useful for diagramming.

I want to search multiple keywords without doing multiple single word searches. Like if I am trying to find relevant electrical data in other trade documents, so I have to search "electric" "power" "light" "luminaire" "current" "circuit".

Adding Boolean search options would be a welcome feature in document searching, as it is with the markup list search feature.

I would look at how AutoCAD implements autosave files. It saves a backup file to a designated folder on your computer in addition to the original file with each autosave. You can then get the backup file when(not if) you need it. Maybe you could have the autosave to a backup file and not overwrite the original. Would that save the undo feature?

Either way i would like the option to autosave somehow. I am sure it would have saved me 10s and 10s of hours of rework over the years. You can have the option to set the interval to 30 minute or an hour or a 7pm every day so it captures when you leave the computer for a long time. This world reduce the impact on the undo feature. MY main issue is files that have been open for hours and i get sidetracked somehow and don't get right back to it.

i have also lost work to windows updates and closing a file by accident without saving.

The lack of autosave is my one real issue with Bluebeam.

Thanks

Agree, with auto save. I believe the auto recovery currently only works if using "studio" in the meantime use a auto save software like "auotsaver" easy to adjust how often it hits "CTRL S"

@Sondra.Camis If you have a lot of docs open you can also periodically select the "save all" or "Shift F2" option to save all open files.

As a long-time user of both Bluebeam and AutoCAD, I'd like to propose a feature that would significantly enhance layer management workflow: a dedicated layer toolbar with a dropdown list, similar to AutoCAD's implementation.

Layers are crucial to my workflow, both for markup organization and CSV export processes. While Bluebeam 21.3 has vastly improved layer stability compared to version 20, accessing and modifying layer assignments still requires more clicks than necessary.

The proposed toolbar would:

• Display the current layer of selected markups
• Provide a dropdown list for quick layer reassignment
• Streamline the markup organization process
• Reduce the number of clicks needed for layer management

This AutoCAD-inspired feature would benefit users who heavily rely on layers for markup organization and data extraction.

Ideally, this would be implemented as a complete layer panel overhaul, eliminating redundant layer controls and featuring a horizontal toolbar placement similar to AutoCAD (classic).
