Re: Edit Grouped Markups In Place
@STR - Kristin yes - I observed the exact same behavior with mine. It seemed to kinda work better if I zoomed way in, but that defeats the purpose somewhat.
@Marco-M thanks for forwarding this to the dev team. Very much appreciated.
Re: Edit Grouped Markups In Place
Unfortunately, this is a "feature" that ruined half of my markup tools.
Re: Double-click to edit text in a group does not work as it used to
Others have the same issue. @birwin see discussion below. @Marco M promised this will be fixed in v21.5. Not sure how long that will take, but until then I'm stuck ungrouping/grouping markup.

Re: Edit Grouped Markups In Place
I struggled with this the other day for a while. It was also somewhat random. It would work properly sometimes and then have the issue you are showing above the next time. I would love to see it fixed.
Re: Secure Tool Sets with a password
I use a lot of custom created tool sets that I like to share with my colleagues and vice versa. However, when I send my mark-ups out to contractors/customers, if I don't want them to use my tools, I flatten my drawing without the ability to unflatten and then save that as a separate file.

Re: Importing Bookmarks from Existing to New PDFs
Try it both ways though, one with replace page content only checked on and another with it unchecked. The bookmarks lose their link on one of those, I forget which one at the moment.
Bookmarks are a big part of organizing a set for efficiency. I’ve often thought that if bookmarks could be exported and imported similar to how markups can be, much of my bookmarking hassles could be solved.
When you export markups, the .bfx file is essentially a blank multi page pdf with the markups still tied to each appropriate page in its place. I think that functionality with bookmarks could go a long way.
Re: Double-click to edit text in a group does not work as it used to
I have the same issue, just installed a copy of Bluebeam on a new computer and now my toolsets don't work, I assume that my old computer had an older version of Bluebeam on it. Anyway, its a huge problem for me, came here looking for an answer.

Re: Better Multiple Tab/Screen Functionality
Please get this added! We use to use Adobe Pro and dragging a tab to a new screen added all the functionality (page toggle, etc.) to the new window. Now I have to constantly go back to the originating screen to change the page on the second window when reviewing two PDFs at one time. I use bluebeam studio a lot so don't want to open two bluebeam sessions as it seems to log me off one of them.
Re: Importing Bookmarks from Existing to New PDFs
Reading through your issue I wanted to see if I could come up with a workflow in the meantime that could speed things along a bit. Replace pages may solve your issue as long the bookmarks just need to go to the same page that they did before.
- Open the document that has the bookmarks already created.
2. Select Document > Replace Pages
3. Select the new document that does not have bookmarks.
4. Adjust the range of the pages you want to replace so it is all pages
5. The bookmarks are in place and still go to the same page number but the content of the page is the new information.
From here you would just need to save as to rename the document. Does this speed things along for you?
