When Bluebeam and AutoCAD are running together and one of these packages locks up or is running an intensive process the other package also locks up in unison. Such as when loading a large drawing file with many references. is there any way of disconnecting Bluebeam from AutoCAD so that it can be used while AutoCAD is busy.
specifically the spaces created when a user hits the enter button on a document before saving as a pdf.
Does anyone know of a way to check for duplicate pages within a document? Say a spec was accidentally added in twice in a very large file so it wouldn't be readily noticeable as having already been added.
I have 6,000 files of engineering reports to review. I need add stamps only to the first page. Is there away to globally set page one when selecting the files in the batch editing dialog box. Currently I click on every file and type "1" in the page range box. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the third image below, the callout appears. The only changes is switching between Full Page view and Scrolling Pages and zooming out a bit. The change between Full page and Scrolling Pages is by the UI buttons in the lower left below the document pane. Zooming was done by holding the Ctrl key and using the mouse wheel.…
Why do I sometimes get double page numbers when I create page labels. It only seems to happen with the drawings from a few architects. I never change the process, I select the Page number_Page description the same way whenever labeling the pages drawings.
Hi! I am using visual search to look for specific devices on a document. When these devices are found, I would like to select multiple results and apply a custom tool chest symbol to these results. I understand this is currently possible via Apply Count Measurment but not through tool chest. How can I make this work?…

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…
