Why when going back and forth in split view drawings do the bookmarks reopen tabs I closed?
Creating circles in Revu can be tricky. Use the ellipse tool and hold the shift key to make a circle. Also works on making squares with the rectangle tool. If you want to make a circle from the center out, hold the ALT key while using the ellipse tool. Does not work with squares.
o quickly create a copy of any selected markup, hold down the Ctrl key, then click and drag the markup to the side. If you’d also like to paste it in the same place on another PDF, copy the markup and use Ctrl + Shift + V when you paste on the new page.
When you use the snapshot tool in Bluebeam, the white portion of the copied area is transparent by default. But if you paste an image of a drawing into your document, the background is solid. To make the background transparent, select the image, click the Mask Color box in the Properties tab, and then select the color…
Please improve the Rotate function when rotating with the grip on plan. It has like a 15° resolution. Please make it more granular / smoother.
Title says it all. I worked with BB help and Danny found that this is an ongoing issue with this printer. Per Danny "I did some digging internally on this issue, specifically on that Brother printer and found that Revu is not compatible with duplex scanning. However, I could definitely see how it would be useful". This is…
Hello, Lately I have not been able to Uncheck the Custom Column Check box's in the Column Display Order. I am able to Check and Uncheck the Built-In but, Not the Custom Columns.
When rotating a mark-up, it only let's you rotate every 15 deg. can this be changed to rotating every degree?
Revu doesn't have an offset feature that really works but you can use custom line styles to create a guide line to work to - not only does this work for straight lines but also basically any shape that you need to work to.

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.…
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…
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 all! I'm searching for a way to password protect a set of markups on a pdf without disabling the ability for other users to add new markups without the password. A working example would be one user, a drawing checker in this case, would go through the pdf creating markups. When they're complete, they lock the file so…
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…
