Hatching in polylengths
I do concrete takeoffs in polylengths to get LF of wall. The markup is often 30-50 units of thickness. It would be nice to apply a concrete hatching to the line to make it more visually appealing. The current options of making the line different kinds of dashed are not very exciting.
Keynote Highlighter
Often, I'm looking at a sheet with 100+ keynotes. Finding all instances of keynote 27 is like playing a game of where's Waldo. It would be nice to hover over a keynote in the legend or over a keynote in the plan and have it highlight all occurrences of that keynote on the sheet.
Tool Set Change Color
Add an option to change the source color of all tools in a tool set. A dropdown with change color from: XX, to: XX would be really useful for people who use the exact same tools but different color for each discipline or role.
ungrouping multiple groups at once
I use a lot of groups for copying and pasting , and mirroring objects on drawings. So i have a lot of groups that i use in these drawings. I however need to ungroup all of these groups so that the subjects in these groups can be sorted in the markings list. In some drawing i have up to 20 or 30 groups i need to ungroup. So…
Search text result export to Excel/CSV
Hi, In my opinion a very useful feature could be the possibility to export the outcome of a text-search results. By exporting the text-results in a Excel/CSV, will allow to make easy and fast the cross-check between the TEXT content in the PDF with a source Excel text-list. To be more clear, I would like to compare TEXT…
Quantity Links with Google Sheets/Excel on the web
It would be incredibly helpful to use quantity links with excel on the web, if excel is not downloaded on your computer. Or even partner with Google Sheets and allow to link Revu that way.
Thumbnails Pane: Show Page Size
Currently in the Thumbnails Pane on Revu, there's an option to show Page Label and Page Scale beneath each page's thumbnail. There's also a helpful "Create Page Labels" button which works best in documents where all the pages are the same size. When documents contain multiple page sizes, it slows down the process of using…
Replace (Non-Consecutive) Pages in Revu
I like the replace pages feature, but it would be awesome if I could replace multiple selected pages with the same page at once. A common use case for us is removing all instances of "this page is intentionally left blank" (created by another software when we export PDFs) and replacing with our own custom version. Although…
Improvements to interface dropdown controls
Ever since Bluebeam has overhauled the interface of Revu to look "pretty", we are stuck with limited options on what can be entered in a dropdown control. Where previously I could type 35% for an arrow size, now I cannot. Same thing for size of text font, etc.
Save Multiscreen View Settings
Allow the user to save multiscreen view settings, or autosave the previous view layout where multiple screens was used. I want the ability to open a pdf file, split the view onto two or more screens, then save that exact layout. Add another button after "Split Horizontal" as "Split Multiscreen" or similar, and have that…
Manual Scale for Tool Sets
Add a manual scaling option on the Tool Chest bar that will reduce all scalable features of a tool by that amount. Perhaps go from 50% to 200% like with the hatch pattern scale dropdown option. This scale is relative and should apply to BOTH properties mode and drawing mode. This will quickly allow a user to scale up or…
Bluebeam Tool Repository
Please create an open source repository similar to GitHub for sharing and developing Bluebeam tools and add-ins. At a minimum this could be a place to share custom tool sets, patterns, stamps, linetypes, etc. At the best it could include the ability to create plug-ins and/or scripting tools to amplify the usefulness of…
Using Revu to Print a document with layers is horribly poor
I have a document with many layers that I can turn on and off. I also use the "configurations" option to save my various layer selections. This allows me to save many different configurations of the layers that are selected. However, the problem is when I need to print something. There is a separate column that shows what…
Secure Tool Sets with a password
While I understand it is great to be able to export and share tools, many of our customers build or pay to create premium tools to enhance their business set them apart from their competition. One of the common things we hear from our larger customers is that they want a way to be able to protect their tools (by password…
Window snapping and window behavior
I would like to suggest a couple of enhancements to improve the user experience for those of us who utilize multitasking workflows. Enhanced Window Snapping Functionality: It would be incredibly beneficial if Bluebeam Review could incorporate the ability to snap to various portions of the screen when hovering over the…

Edit/Unlock markups in Studio Sessions
Please add the ability to allow some users to edit/delete other peoples comments. This can be controlled through permissions. At our organisation when reviewing drawings there is a review manager that consolidates comments before sending them back. This process occurs regardless of if we are using Bluebeam or another tool.…
Add Folders for Studio Sessions!
Add folders for studio sessions to organize the list of recent Studio sessions. Some of our clients utilize one Studio session per deliverable on large projects that have multiple reviewers. It can be quite a task to find the one studio session for a smaller project amidst the rows and rows of studio sessions per…
Bullet points & Indent text
With more people using bluebeam as a CAD/drawing program. It would be nice if bullet points/numbers points with auto text indent was a feature.
Auto Save
It would be helpful to have an autosave function for PDFs being used in Revu. Currently this does not exist and would be very beneficial.
Numbered Lists and Bulleted List
This has been requested many many times in the past by many Revu users. WHY is there STILL no numbered/bulleted list function??
Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
Editable Table
I'd like to create/insert a table into Bluebeam Revu that I can edit like any other markup.
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
Please allow one-click download all files in a Studio Session
Hi. It would be very helpful to have a Bluebeam Revu (we use 20 at my company) functionality to be able to download all of the files within a Studio Session with one or two clicks as opposed to having to download all files individually. This would save time, especially for Sessions with a large number of files (100+ is…
Convert shape to Area
I don't know how many times I have drawn a rectangle or polygon shape to create an outline or fill, only to need the area. Instead of redrawing it, it would be great to be able to simply convert it to an area. Or have them always calculate area regardless of the tool?
