A number of drawings we receive from clients are watermarked and/or password protected as well but are not hyperlinked which slows everything down. When I create bookmarks and page labels using Automark, the watermark text that crosses the drawing title block is being picked up as well and in order to get Batch Link to…
I would like to know how I can set the scale precision to default to 1/8" instead of 1/4". I have searched but not been able to come up with an answer.
Good afternoon all. I'm in the concrete sales business and more so than not, yardages for such things as foundation, paving and curb and gutter are not available from the contractors. This led me to finding another solution. Revu 21 seemed to be what I needed to learn. If there is anyone in here that does concrete…
Does anyone know why I can suddenly no longer reorder pages in thumbnails? I'm hoping that someone has found a solution to this issue. Bluebeam support can't seem to address this question in a timely fashion due to an overload of tech support questions.
Has anyone had this problem, or know a solution for it? The "My Tools" section of the Tool Chest has disappeared from my screen entirely, and it's not shown as hidden. As a result, I cannot use the numbered hotkeys for tools anymore. I have signed out of my account, restarted my computer, and reinstalled Bluebeam, but…
I have a profile that I have exported. When I try to import it to another computer, the file loads, but not the profiles. I've tried deleting the other profiles (although they keep appearing again even though they have been deleted). And just importing this profile. The profile works on my computer but when I try to upload…
I like to use multiple legends on the same drawing to give a summary of measurements for different areas of work. Whenever a markup tool is used, and the proposed legend is selected, Revu assumes that all previous markups that have used that same tool, need to go on the same legend? I've found I'm working around this by…
Is there a way to crop a snapshot to remove unwanted content without flattening, or taking a new snapshot? My use case is to use a single snapshot multiple times, then crop each of them once pasted and placed in position. I appreciate i may need to just take multiple snapshots, however this would mean i am required to have…
Hey guys! Got a coworker who's having issues being able to input text into a text based custom column. When he goes through the properties panel it lets him edit the property to his heart's content. The problem is that in his workflow he usually makes those changes through the markups list instead but it suddenly stopped…
Hi Bluebeam newbie, just installed the latest complete version today. All I want to do is to highlight a line drawing of a door and change its colour to red. Then choose a wall and fill the gap between 2 lines in red. Also it might be nice to edit text. = I've tried the select tool and it does nothing. Nothing is selected.…

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.…
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…
Currently, the final output consists of only the intersection of matched pages between specified current and revised files. Please let me know if it's possible to include pages that did not match from the specified revised file in the output PDF.
I just DLd BB and have a Mac computer- it seems as if I can only use BB cloud. Is the functionality different while using cloud opposed to downloading it straight to my desktop (which I can't do)?
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…
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…
