Can Bluebeam create Adobe Acrobat fillable fields within a pdf? I know how to create a text box, but I would like to create the blue fillable fields that anyone can fill by just using Acrobat viewer. In the same vane, I would like to create the blue check boxes as well. TIA
My "Dynamic Fill" says it's disabled. How do I enable it?
How do I share a Custom Toolbox with other users who use the same login but operate from a separate desktop?
Is there a way that Bluebeam can set sequential numbers against all icons in a custom toolbox so that as each icon is placed, it is numbered? I know this can be done for each separate icon e.g. post icon can be placed and numbered 1-10 then when the second icon is used, the numbers start again from 1 however for our…
I am looking for a way to package up a Studio Project and all activity, files, etc. into a format that can be saved/shared via other software/email. I found this article (How-to-See-Project-or-Session-Activity) that outlines pulling a project activity report however when I log into Studio Prime Portal as it mentions, I do…
Does anyone know if there is a way to create a line or measurement markup that automatically segments a line into predetermined length segment? For example…Drawing one line across a page with an indicator mark shown at every 10 foot segment.
When I attach an image it comes in sideways and the preview is sideways also. Is the a setting that controls that?

I have an iMac ; so I can only use BB Cloud. I am having trouble reviewing drawings: I need to compare drawings by opening two screens and working on both drawings at the same time; can this be done? When I scroll down the drawings; They move to the far left side when I may want to keep them in the middle; is this possible.
I am trying to create a markup group/symbol similar to the cloud with attached text box (as found in the default Architect, Contractor, and Engineer tool chests). This markup would have a rectangular box (instead of the cloud) with a line that attaches to a flag with a text label (instead of a text box). But I do NOT want…

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…
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…
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
