I have BluBeam Revu 21(21.2.0.1883) deployed on many machines virtual and physical. For some reason the eye dropper tool will not work on any of the machines. I have gone through the article related to security and color modes but cannot come up with a solution. They eyedropper will not work even on a blank document where…
Hello, I am a long time user of Bluebeam studio sessions ( 6 months since last used ) and relatively new when it comes to creating studio sessions. we are setting up review sessions for a new project and i have set up a dummy session to ensure the actual reviews go well. I have been trying to both setup and access studio…
Hi Bluebeam Community! 👋 Bluebeam has great impact in the AEC industry workflows , but I’m curious—how is Bluebeam being used by manufacturing professionals? 📦⚙️ As part of my work, I’m exploring how Bluebeam could enhance collaboration, communication, and productivity in the manufacturing domain. Specifically, we’re…
Can the format painter be used across pages when in View Continuous Pages mode? For example I have a legend that is formatted with Blue Gridlines on page 3, and I can see both legends because I am in continuous view. But I cannot apply the properties to the legend on Page 4, even though they are on screen simultaneously.
I am having a problem with our one computer that is in our main conference room for presentations, collaboration etc.. It gets stuck when trying to logon for a new user for BlueBeam. Starts the logon process, but seems to block the MFA portion of the SSO or gets lost behind the main screen and sometimes produces a can't…
After 7 days of inactivity? Ok I get there is maybe a security reason because we're all stuck on cloud but this is getting very irritating, especially when I'm busy just trying to complete a quick task with a program I already paid for. Instead of getting work done, I have to dig up passwords.
The drawing is scaled properly, and when utilizing the lineal dimension tool, the lineal dimension is correct. When using the perimeter tool, it calculates the length twice as long as the lineal dimension. Please advise.
Happy Friday everyone.. One thing that has always kept me tossing and turning in bed is…. the display order of the Markups List.. Now don't get me wrong, i do enjoy a good manual reordering of the columns just like anyone else.. But, is there a magic button somewhere in Preferences or something to show them in Alphabetial…
In the past, the cloud had the option for a little punchlist dot icon that I could place on the plan, and attach a photo and notes to that icon. With the new updates, that icon is no longer there, and I have to place images directly on the plan, which is not ideal. Especially in tight spaces with several markups, there is…
What are your tips and tricks for utilizing Bluebeam when it comes to the Specification Manual beyond simply booking the sections and conducting a word search? There are many posts and videos available on maximizing the use of drawings for markups, navigation, and collaboration. However, these resources often overlook the…

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…
