Install on D drive
Please make it possible to choose the drive where the application installs. IT guys set up the computers with everything defaulting to the C drive and it is never big enough because the apps keep taking more more space. Being able to choose the drive would be super helpful!!!
Exporting Nested Data from Grouped Markups
Could Bluebeam add an option to export grouped markup data without ungrouping? I’m working on a large project takeoff involving numerous material objects, where grouped markups helped streamline the process. However, when exporting data, the export function combines grouped markup data, preventing access to individual item…
Change Callout Leader Thickness Without Adding a Text Box
I frequently use callouts, but sometimes I want the callout to have a leader line without enclosing the text in a box. Currently, if the line thickness is set to 0.00 pt, the text appears by itself with a 1.00 pt leader line. However, if I adjust the line thickness, a box automatically appears around the text. Is there a…
Image appearance
Hello, I'd like to know if it's possible on BlueBeam to make an image appear in Popup mode by hovering the mouse over a word.That is, when I move the mouse over a word, an image appears on my PDF. Maybe with JAVA or Python code?
Erstellen einer Übersicht aus einer Markups-Liste in CSV/Excel
man kann in "Übersicht" bei der "Ausgabe" - Einstellung die Auswahl "Gesamtwerte" treffen. Diese Auswahl ist jedoch keine Option, da nicht der Betreff und nicht die selbst hergestellten Spalten erscheinen.

More Options for 3D file types for 3D PDF creation or plugin for SketchUp
Hello Bluebeam, I'm looking to incorporate 3D models into a PDF report. The models are usually created from simple LiDAR scans using an iPhone and apps such as "Polycam" and "3D Scanner App" which typically export to .OBJ .GLB .FBX etc… I can't find any work arounds to get this into a .U3D file to use in a 3D PDF. I've…
Perimeter - ability to edit length
As an architect, we use the perimeter command to illustrate maximum travel distances. The dimension command allows us to click on the distance (number) and type in a new number and the dimension automatically adjusts. We need the ability to do the same with perimeter. Right now, if I have a maximum travel distance of 300’,…
Suggestion to Bluebeam: Enhancing the Snapshot Feature with Auto Snap/Align Capabilities
Bluebeam's Snapshot feature is a fantastic tool that the design team frequently uses to copy structural framing layout plans and overlay them onto architectural drawing layouts. This functionality greatly enhances efficiency and collaboration, especially during design coordination meetings. However, one limitation is that…
Suggestion to Bluebeam: Enhancing OCR Capabilities for Handwritten Content
Bluebeam's OCR feature for scanned design and construction drawings has proven to be a powerful tool for professionals in the AEC industry. However, I’ve noticed a significant limitation when it comes to recognizing handwritten notes or annotations on these drawings. Currently, the technology struggles to accurately…
Bentley ProjectWise 2024 Integration
Currently, we see that Revu 21 has integration with ProjectWise Explorer 2023. However, we are upgrading to PW 2024 and noticed that we lost the integration. How soon will this feature be available? Hopefully this integration will continue to be supported as new versions of PW Explorer are released. Thanks.
Please Add an Option to Remove the Scale for Page
If I am wrong, then my apologies, but from what I have seen and heard, there is no way to remove a scale from an entire page (not a viewport; I understand that can be done). There are some similar posts, but I wanted to call attention to this to hopefully get a fix on it. It would be great if there was maybe an option in…
Copy paste all markup metadata 'as-is' (including replies)
Currently when you copy-paste a markup from one document to another it only copies the markup, and the 'comment' field. The status, author, and all custom columns get reset to default values. I propose the following: Option 1 - When copy-pasting a markup all metadata associated with that markup should be copy-pasted too.…
Extend snap to markup to the Document Overlay Process
Hi BlueBeam, I found that I am unable to snap to a markup line during manual alignment of documents in the Overlay Documents command. One of my contributors omitted the grid lines from the drawing set they marked up. I need to extend wall lines to intersect with other geometry so I can align my drawings. I added markup…
Retain sort order of "Open File from SharePoint Library"
Greetings, I hope this message finds you and yours well! I would like to suggest an enhancement, or possibly an opportunity to educate me. :) We have recently migrated to SharePoint form a local network share. We have multiple users who sort their files by the "Date Modified" column, descending. Using the "Open File (DMS)"…
Retain order of displayed columns
I know this is a little lengthy, but I tried to make it totally clear and understandable. I hope I succeeded. When you open "Manage Columns" there are two tabs, "Display Order" & "Custom Columns". Once I import my custom columns, I want to setup the order in the "Display Order" tab. This procedure sets the order the…

Edit/Unlock markups in Studio Sessions
Please add the ability to allow some users to edit/delete other peoples comments. This can be controlled through permissions. At our organisation when reviewing drawings there is a review manager that consolidates comments before sending them back. This process occurs regardless of if we are using Bluebeam or another tool.…
Add Folders for Studio Sessions!
Add folders for studio sessions to organize the list of recent Studio sessions. Some of our clients utilize one Studio session per deliverable on large projects that have multiple reviewers. It can be quite a task to find the one studio session for a smaller project amidst the rows and rows of studio sessions per…
Bullet points & Indent text
With more people using bluebeam as a CAD/drawing program. It would be nice if bullet points/numbers points with auto text indent was a feature.
Auto Save
It would be helpful to have an autosave function for PDFs being used in Revu. Currently this does not exist and would be very beneficial.
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
Optimisation for the new arm based windows machines
I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I have a couple of suggestions that I think could make Bluebeam even better. First off, I've been really impressed with the new ARM-based Windows machines, especially those using the Snapdragon Elite X. They’re powerful, have great battery life—kind of like MacBooks in…
Numbered Lists and Bulleted List
This has been requested many many times in the past by many Revu users. WHY is there STILL no numbered/bulleted list function??
Editable Table
I'd like to create/insert a table into Bluebeam Revu that I can edit like any other markup.
Showing who has a PDF file open.
Just curious if there is a feature that can be added. The company I work for uses a network that will give access to pdf drawing files and the files are locked when someone has them open. I am wondering if there is a way we can add the feature to see who has the file open instead of it saying "locked by another user" as…
