Explode Feature

Marta Girina

Hi there, I think a useful feature to bluebeam would be a feature that allows you to “explode” a PDF drawing and allow you to modify or delete the exploded lines. This would come in handy if there is a PDF with a gridlines line that you would like to delete to make a snapshot more clear, or erase any accidental lines that may be in the document. I know about the “erase content” tool in Bluebeam but you have to draw around the object you want to erase, instead of clicking it directly. This can get very time consuming if you are trying to delete a line that goes through many objects.

Adobe Acrobat has a feature like this and it is very helpful. This is a link to a YouTube video that shows the feature in Acrobat: . I have seen this feature used for other PDF files and not just scans, and was extremely helpful.
