Hi Team, Can properties like those available to edit bookmarks please be added to layers? For example, Bold, Italic and Highlight.
When selecting layers, CNTRL SHIFT select , we cannot move the LAYERS in a group they HAVE to be done individual this is extremely inconvenient as its a simple movement of layers and option If we have 100's or layers, this is very time consuming when a simple option to select all in a group and move up or down into a…
Keyboard Shortcut Key Request: Add ability for the user to select a single layer to be assigned to a keyboard shortcut key for toggling on and off that layer. Example: Layers: Main document Overlay document #1 Overlay document #2 Right click overlay document #1 layer > assign to layer shortcut key > toggle on/off assigned…
Working with really large PDF sets, sometimes it seems performance may be hindered by a set with layers that were exported from the originating software, i.e. AutoCAD. It would be nice if there was a merge layers option to bring all layers to one.
I submit a request about the printing of drawings, measurements and markups that are in specific layers. I draw measurements in buildings to demolish or to construct, on an architect et engineer drawing; I design one layer for unique elements, one layer for elements on the ground, one layer for vertical elements on walls,…
I apply markups on top of each other to represent takeoff items for estimating. Each markup is on a separate Layer so that they can be toggled on and off for clarity. I will then group these markups and add them to the Tool Chest for repeat copy and paste. These pasted markups are then Ungrouped so that I have individual…
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…
This week, we’re highlighting Layers in Bluebeam Revu. Layers let you organize content, making it easy to show or hide different elements like markups or design details. How have you used layers to keep your documents organized?

I have one user, in one PDF, when he click on the screen, the page advances. He's unable to do markups because the page keeps advancing. I've never seen the behavior and we can't replicate it. It doesn't happen to other PDFs in the same sessions and reoccurs if Bluebeam is closed and reopened.
When this happens, I can't move a directory with that file. This reddit post solved it for me. You just need to disable the recent file list in Revu. But I would like to use the recent file list feature someday, now that I have to turn it off. Please fix this Bluebeam. Thanks.…
Ok. So I have decided to throw in the towel and look for some help. Towards the end of the year I made a form in Word and then made it fillable through Bluebeam's "Automatically Create Form Fields" in Tools (I believe as it's been a good while). Both samples attached. Since then I have been doing other things, have had…
I'm currently working on customizing the engineering review stamp from the custom libraries, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to edit it without disabling the pop-up feature that appears when placing the stamp. Ideally, I want the pop-up to remain active so that the reviewer can fill out the required fields…
Hi all, We recently experienced a technical issue that caused users to have trouble accessing Bluebeam.com domains. The problem has been fixed, but it may take a little while for the fix to fully take effect everywhere due to how internet systems store temporary information. Thank you for your patience as everything…
Good morning, I logged a ticket with support but no response yet. I cleared the registry by doing a complete uninstall of all previous versions and used the Bluebeam Cleaner Utility (but that only goes back to 21.0.3. I also ran the latest download as an administrator yet the only thing that installs is OCR and when it…
I do an absurd amount of take offs, and count all day long. I LOVE being able to leave a sequence, and resume it after looking at another page. This doesnt work anymore? Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
I have been using Revu to build quantity take-offs for construction estimates, I’m trying to clean up the organization and structure of the markups. I typically sort the markups by the subject, but I need to be able to re-sort the line items before I export the take-off. I can’t manually move items on the markup list up or…
Hi Bluebeam Community, I recently purchased two vacant residential lots in El Sereno/South Pasadena area to build at least two small temporary homes for families displaced by recent wildfires. This project will provide safe, dignified housing while survivors rebuild their lives—but I need your help to make it happen! How…
Has anyone experienced this issue after updating to version 21.6? It doesn’t happen every time, but occasionally I get a popup that prevents Bluebeam from opening. When this occurs, I’m unable to launch the application at all. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this and found a solution.
