I was wondering if anyone knows how to create a digitally signed signature (instead of using conventional digital signature offered)? I'd like to create a permanent image of my own signature on paper, store it and certify it if possible. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Can't find the split tool for polylines in bluebeam 2021. Youtube tutorials show the option, but it's missing for me. Don't want to redo all my markups. Help!
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…
Is there an auto save function? Unfortunately, I had an entire day's worth of takeoff disappear when my computer froze. Even if it auto saved every 10-15 minutes would be great.
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…
Working on a form and added the "reset form" button and it works as always. I'm trying to add a "print form" button but the issue I'm having is that when I click my print form button it will work once, but if you press it again, it won't work thereafter. I submitted this on ChatGPT and it had several options, but none of…
I got an email this afternoon asking if I wanted to sign up for this. "Interested in trying new Bluebeam innovations before they’re released to the public? You’re in luck!" It sounded interesting. I clicked the link, but the USA BBID doesn't take you to a login page. Is anyone else having this issue?
how to i change the line density when using the measuring tool? when i pull a measurement i click and the measurement stays as a thin blue line and not a thicker line
I am working on creating a custom toolset for my team to quickly calculate concrete and steel reinforcement quantities for bridge components. In order to do this, I have added quite a few custom "columns" which take inputs or store tool-specific variables. These are displayed in the measurement properties tab under…

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…
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…
On the Bluebeam website, under "Resources" > "Need an older version of Revu?" there is only v20 and older. This needs new options, like v21.6. Currently the need for this is high, because v21.7 has a highly annoying "new feature" while drawing polylines, areas and contour and area measurement. Something goes visually wrong…
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…
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…
Seeing as to how many rave reviews there AREN'T for Cloud, I wanted to come on here and list a few features that are desperately needed, and see if anyone else has insight into how the mobile version can be made as awesome as the PC version: Undo/redo button - Honestly can’t believe this is not there… dynamic editing of…
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 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…
