I miss having the Loupe tool that Acrobat has, where you can magnify a small area, without having to change your zoom level or position.

    Are you using a 3 button mouse with a wheel? I have found the zoom/pan with a wheel mouse quite intuitive to zoom in to view specific areas and then back out to the larger area quickly… never thought about needing a separate tool for that.

    I do this with split screen. I pop out the second view and make it a smaller window. by defualt in floats above your base instance on Bluebeam (i drag it on and off screen as required). And i can also keep Thumbnails open. This way I have my main drawing, a zoomed portion and a thumbnail that shows me where I zoomed into. For drawing reviews, I would use the floating window to zoom in on project or construction notes, or smaller drawing details. If you have mastered the use of the scroll wheel on your mouse then this works quickly (scroll when 'fit to page' is enabled, ctrl+scroll when 'scrolling pages' is enabled). There are other ways to zoom in and out but they are slower.
