When you have a bluebeam session with large amounts of attendees. It would like life easier if there was a way to copy or export the emails, better than copy then many times one by one, I know there is an option for creating group, but sometimes you have to do that with different way.
I have a schedule exported to PDF with lots of data. Oddly, some of the data fields that are exported from the scheduling tool are not fully recognized as text by Bluebeam. For example, a unique task ID number of 'E-60-AR-1234' exists, but is not found in search. Additionally, if I attempt to copy that ID number, upon…
Are there any new features now in Revu 21.5 version? Please let us know if there are any useful functional improvements.
I use the highlighter to mark completed changes on revision sheets. Whenever it encounters text, the highlighter changes to a text insertion point. Is there a way to prevent this from happening, so it stays on "highlight only?" I have tried holding down the CNTL key, but this only works part of the time. Thanks, Josh
The session feature is inconvenient because it restricts users from editing markups created by others. It would be helpful to have a function that allows only authorized users to edit them. Does such a feature exist?
I have upgraded from 2018 to version 21. I use a lot of grouped images and found with this version when I change the line color, the software automatically changes the line size of items that were 0.0 to 1.0. This is forcing me to ungroup images and manually correct the line sizes back to 0.0. Defaults and toolbox is not…
I've been fighting this issue with various PDF's for a while now. It mostly presents with snapshots, groups of markups/images, etc. If I hover over select snapshots (G, vector based in settings)/markups, the colored vector-like glitches present and go away upon moving the mouse. The lines shown usually present when I save…
I wanted to try the Auto Align option in Revu 21, but it aligned based on title blocks instead of the content. So I tried again by selecting the area to overlay, and it still didn't align (Arch plan/Struct plan - same scale). Has anyone successfully used this feature yet?
I am a flooring contractor and I am trying to takeoff rooms using 6'7" sheet goods. Is there a way to measure the area and autofill the seams every 6'7"?
When the line thickness of the call-out is set to 0, there is no box around the text and the arrow has a line thickness of 1.0. Is there any way of reducing the line thickness of the arrow without creating a box around the text?

Hi, is there a way to add an oval shape callout in Bluebeam? In my industry, we often use oval callouts to identify equipment, but currently, only rectangle, circle, triangle, and hexagon options are available. It would be great to have an oval shape option or the ability to adjust the circle dimensions to create an oval.…
Now is a good time to "Revu" your progress on 2025 Bluebeam goals. Whether it be workflow review, tool improvements, or simply existing markup edits to align with the latest company standards we all could use a little reminder to look back and ahead in 2025! Feeling energized dialing back to the beginning of Q1 when I…
My issue is a question/idea but is it currently possible to save/reuse selected Page Regions made when creating new Thumbnail Page Labels or in Bookmarks. We use the Page Labels/Bookmarks 'Page Region' feature to extract out drawing title block information, but I have to redo the same region selections for each new package…
One part question one part idea for y'all today. My office uses studio session extensively to redline and coordinate with several different consultant teams at once. A PM will have to manage 2-7 Bluebeam sessions at once, one per project site. Our field reps will be in and out of 20-40 sessions per week. The firm standard…
I have a client that would like to use the functions and features found in the Prime Portal. Namely reactivating a finished Session. Is this in the org. admin. portal? If so how is it accessed? Thank you Vinnie Stamato
It would be a great help for me if locked objects were marked when clicked on, for example with a padlock, as it does in other programs.
Do you know of an integration between Bluebeam and Procore that allows Bluebeam to mark up plans and sync to Procore? Thank you Vinnie Seattle WA
Occasionally, during a session a user will not see the status options needed to set the state. The occurrence is not tied to a specific user or session. This issue has persisted for years, and I am still searching for a solution - aside from additional markings or highlights in the session markups. Anyone else experiencing…
We are trying to standardize user permissions by creating Groups in Bluebeam Studio. It seems to be that Groups are individual user based and I also had an issue where a user invited to a group on one project automatically got invited to another group when that same user group was added to that project. Anybody else use…
I have been trying to create a link between my Bluebeam markups and a corresponding Excel Document/Table. I was curious if there is a way or a JavaScript Code that would allow me to export my markups list and then Bluebeam will update that export when I save it after I have made changes to it. I have used power query in…
