I'm wondering if anyone has ever discovered a workaround for Revu requiring admin rights to install updates. This has become unwieldy and inconvenient for our users. I was thinking of experimenting with giving users full control on some program folders or assets but I thought I would reach out so I'm not reinventing the…
A question for the ages in the AEC industry, regarding the abbreviation for UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE or UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED… Do you belong to team UNO, or team UON?
Hi Community! I'm creating a drawing status stamp for my Team of Design Managers. We are a major contractor. I have created a finished template (containing two drawing statuses with tickboxes within it).

I was trying to figure out how to change the text size 1 to size 0.5 and every time I use the font size text box to change the number to 0.50 it'll default the size to 8. Is there a way to change the text size smaller then 1?
We need help. We use Bluebeam Revu to edit PDFs with stamps and text modules. At first, it worked. We work at two workstations and log in normally. For a few days now, we've been opening PDFs. When we start up, the editing bar on the page becomes active. Then it loads the PDF, and the bar becomes inactive. I've tried…
I recently synced my work OneDrive account with Bluebeam Cloud and I'm trying to figure out the benefits or the reasons for doing so. I'm new to using the Cloud option but does it makes sense to store documents and have OneDrive access all under one roof? I just realized that there is unlimited document storage on the…
The total will not work when it is a Perimeter and not a Polylength. Selected polylength but it records like a perimeter. Sometimes it shows up as polylenght and other times as perimeter. Is there something I'm missing
Our work laptops were running two different versions of Bluebeam, and in both of those versions, we were unable to use the Microsoft Office add-ins. We keep hearing that there is a problem with Bluebeam, and I am curious whether anyone else is having the same problem. I'm interested in learning if the problem is a…

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.…

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…
I use the filter markups function to locate all takeoffs. However, when I have two markups at same location as in the picture, and try to filter the markup that I need, it will not show because the other markup is greyed out and obstructs it. The filter markup feature should work in a way similar to layers. for example in…
Is there a way to be able to Add a Sequence into a Count Measurement tool? Here's my scenario…I want to be able to mark up a plan with a red dot or a blue dot with a number sequence (each dot colour will have its own number sequence) but then I want to do a count on the number of red dots and number of blue dots and add it…

When you have a document open and split so you have (2) windows, is there a way for the tools to display with each window so you don't have to go all the way across the screen to get to the 1 windows tools?
I have "mirrored" (aligned vertically) a markup (Area Measurement) which contains a Depth (markup is calculating the volume of concrete) which also contains "Polygon Cut-On". After "Aligning" ive tried to move, delete, subtract "Control Points" but nothing works. I though markup maybe "locked" but is not the case.
I am using quantity link to get length takeoffs from my PDF directly to excel. I can link a cell to a certain measurement type (length, area, etc.) but can't separate it out from there. Attached picture might make this make sense. I want the 'Length 1' measurement to go to cell B2 and the 'Length 2' measurement to go to…
