The copy paste function is no longer working as it did. I can't copy a page from one doc to another. Also, can't copy/paste items in the documents
Has anyone here had issues when dupe/revising a custom profile with custom statuses? I inherited some customized profiles which I still use but whenever I have tried to update them (i.e., add or rename a status), it doesn't work. I save it as under a different name but it basically reverts back to the original. I feel like…
Hello, I am relatively new to Bluebeam and I am setting up custom tool chests by division, for take offs. I am only a couple divisions in and I am having issues with freezing/lagging if I open more than one tool chest at a time. In fact this is my second time doing these as the first time it caused my program to crash and…
Has anyone else noticed a bit of a lag when changing your tool from Drawing Mode to Properties Mode? It seems to be a thing from 21.6.
Everytime i start a new pdf the first thing I have to do i change it to Fit to Page so I can see the whole pdf.
Does anyone else have this issue? This is the second time this happened to me and my entire office… it is really starting to make me think Bluebeam isn't has beneficial as it should be. My contract/subscription included 4 seats. I am the organization administrator for all of the seats and was notified at the beginning of…
I love to use the search to find equipment tags on a print, but some documents dont search for some reason — What do I need to do to make them searchable?
How can I increase the size of Fonts in the menu, tabs and expecially in the index to documents?
Revu is powerful, but lacks the ability to configure/save Workspaces for specific tasks. As example: Markups The native dock location (bottom) for Markups is not very user friendly. Yes, I can drag it out and position on the side, so I can still see our 24x36 (ARCH D) engineering plan sheets, but it has several issues.…

Hi all, my name is Aily, and I'm the Manager of Customer Education at Bluebeam - nice to meet you! I want to learn how you prefer to train, onboard, or up-skill your internal employees on everything Bluebeam, so I can make sure we're allocating the right resources to the right kinds of training (aka help me help you!). If…
Please add folders within sessions for document organization. This will make navigating to the documents within a session cleaner and easier as documents within a session can add up and be cumbersome to have to search through to find what the user is trying to open. This feature would be greatly appreciated by all. Thank…
While I wait for the influx of new members from the PHX/NorCal bug webinar I thought I'd ask about your experience with making custom hatches and line styles in Bluebeam (the topic of the webinar). There were some great examples of custom hatches and lines that made a lot of sense for those users. One was a civil office…
If you've ever had to place a symbol on a drawing more than three times, you've probably wondered, "I wish I didn't have to keep clicking on the symbol every time I want to place it." I have great news for you 😀 The Reuse Tools option keeps that tool selected for placing as many instances of a symbol as you need! There are…
Did you know that double-clicking a Bluebeam Revu Profile (.bpx file) automatically opens Revu and imports the profile for you? This is the quickest and easiest way to have a User import a Profile. It is a very low impact for our non-technical friends and co-workers. 😅 It is much better than explaining how to click the…
I would like another option for locking that allows for a shapes dimensions to be locked, but still be able to move the shape / sketch around. An example of this would be a toggle for "dimension lock" where I could trace the outline of a building and rotate / move it around a site or property without accidentally changing…
I just installed version 21.4 this morning on a second work machine, and encountered the common problem of Print to Bluebeam being broken during install. I resolved the problem using the following steps (Windows 11, 64 bit). I have admin privileges, so make sure you can make such changes before starting. I can't guarantee…
I know that Bluebeam makes it difficult to select a markup that is under another markup—try selecting a markup four levels deep! BUT! I ran a demo today, and a 💡 went off in my head. Can I make a Keyboard Shortcut from the R21.2 Hide selected markup feature and use it to quickly hide obscuring markups to get to the markup…
Would it be possible to create an additional option under "Manage Toolsets" to edit the columns in the Tool Chest? Such as renaming or disabling which ones are not used. And that the columns are also extended as soon as they are extended to the right and do not become narrower again
When moving a PDF file from the main BlueBeam application to another window (or second monitor), it creates a new Bluebeam tab. I would like to see it create a new separate application on my computer that I can pull up and down, as needed. Currently, if I click away on Bluebeam (with multiple tabs open on multiple…
