Interactive keynote pop-up / hover preview linked to keynote legends
Suggestion: Add an interactive keynote feature in Bluebeam Revu that links a keynote callout on a drawing to the matching entry in the drawing’s keynote legend.

Hi, The Auto-Complete List 10 label cap has been an issue since the 21.10 update. Would it be possible to remove the 10 input limiter. The solution to manually add the list of commonly used labels isnt a valid solution due to every new project being different. We have had to roll back to the 21.9 version due to this issue…
