I am a struggling new user for Bluebeam. I did have a vertical scrollbar a couple of days ago, but now it is gone. It shows that it is enabled in the preferences, but I don't see it. I tried ticking the On Left box, but that didn't seem to do anything. The enable boxes for Horizontal and Vertical are grayed out on the…
Hello, we're working on adding custom tools with our own labeling for use in Revu. Count measurements have been very easy to integrate, but is it possible to add the Polylength tool with custom labels for the columns to the Tool Chest? When I attempt to add them like the count measurements, it "bakes in" whatever I draw…
Recently, I added a file to a session while offline and started making comments in it. Unknown to me, someone added the same file with the same file name to the session while I was offline. When I went back online, there was an error message that said it was not possible to have two files with the same name in a session…

I have been tasked to create a PDF order form where a user would be able to select a geometric shape for a construction form. My ideal situation would be a dropdown form where different shapes are selectable and upon selection, a drawing of that shape would appear on the page with additional drop down options regarding…
Hi everyone, we have Revu 20.3.30, If we check the projectwise plugin check box in Revu Administrator, Apply, and Close. Next time we open Administrator the checkbox isn't checked.

Afternoon All, We have custom tool chest icons with photos attached to them on our markups. There are up to 200 icons on a markup, which for some reporting we want to remove all photos. Can anyone suggest how to delete all the photos in a single action? It is very time consuming to delete individual photos from each icon…
I created page labels for my document and want to search for them but when using CTRL+F the page does not show up as seen below. Another solution would be to order/sort the pages by their label, is this possible?

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…
