Allow Changes to Permissions Per Document
Permissions are currently set per session (or group/person in the session). I recommend the capability of allowing permission changes to individual documents to deviate from the session permissions. E.g. I have an old document with markups I want to keep loaded on the session for reference, but do not want others to edit…
Batch-link to places
I would like to batch-link to places (snapshot-view) and/or named spaces. This would be very helpful in the review-process in sessions. And it looks like manual links to places (snapshot-view) DON`T work in sessions. I manually did this for a project and it works on my local file but not in session. :S
Forms - The ability to change a checkbox to a radio control checkbox.
Using the autoform generator, it creates checkboxes appropriately; however I would like the ability to convert those checkboxes to radio control - where only one checkbox can be selected at a time; To my knowledge there isn't a way to do this without deleting the existing checkbox, creating a radio control, and then…
Revolution Volume
Good afternoon, there should be a tool inside of measurements for calculating the volume based on the typical slice of a cylindrical object. Using the radius and a line of rotation it should be able to calculate the volume of the area. I work on installing tanks and that would be very helpful
Bluebeam Search Function - Search "Folder Shortcuts"
Currently the Search - Folder - Include Sub-Folders function does not search within "folder shortcuts". Adding this function would be a huge improvement to bypass unnecessary folders/files increasing the speed and usefulness of search.
Capture Media Pop-Up Should Act As A Window
When I attach a capture photo to a markup (generally a photo of an on site condition located on the drawings) the capture pop-up shows up. This is great, but it would be nice if this pop-up acted like a typical Microsoft Window. I would like it to have features such as, moving to another screen, maximizing or minimizing,…
Merged: Search Bar for all Sessions

Revit color exports to 3D PDFs.
It would be great when you export a 3D PDF from Revit, that the colors that appear on the Revit window match what the colors are in the 3D PDF. Currently, exports from Revit only take their native material colors and overrides in the 3D viewport do not transfer. Frequently, colors are altered for emphasis and changing the…
Revu Multi-Select Add & Remove
Ability to keep adding too or remove from a selection when using Click+Drag & Lasso selecting commands. The shortcuts show a Multi-Select option using Shift+Left-Click+Drag which only allows you to use it while using other commands which the Right-Click+Drag command already does. I believe the Shift+Click+Drag should be…
Allow for Hashtags (#) in Sharepoint using extension
Currently when a PDF has a # in it's filename, the Revu application does not open the file when choosing "Open in Revu" with the Sharepoint Extension installed. We deal with a lot of PDFs every day in our company, coming from separate clients. A good number of them have hashtags in them, and our intake staff are instructed…
Option For Not Suppressing Zero In Dimensions With Fractions
When we plot our pdf's, sometimes the dimensions can get mistaken or seem confusing because the zero is suppressed if there is a measurement that has a fraction but not an inch. Would be handy to have the ability to turn this on or off. Thanks, -JR.
Override Reserved Keyboard Shortcuts
I'd like Bluebeam to add the ability to change the keyboard shortcut for shortcuts that are reserved (e.g. the Del button). It would add more versatility and efficiency when creating markups.
Accessing & Managing Tool Sets
I prefer to download or create and store every conceivable tool symbol possible. I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Which makes navigating the 'Manage Tool Sets' window somewhat frustrating. 1. Why can't the 'Manage Tool Sets' access button be at the very TOP of all listed Tool Sets, instead…
Scripting / API for Studio Projects
One of the most time consuming things is setting up a project and setting the permissions for both the project and the folders. I would think that having scripting to automate the project setup for complex projects would increase the efficiency as well as consistency. The case would be to set up multiple user groups, such…
Markup Tool Grips
The markup grips for various tools do not work well together, especially if you want to align one edge of an ellipse to the edge of a line (as an example), it aligns the outside edge of the elipse to the center of the line. This happens with many of the tools and makes it tough to have things look professional. Suggest…

Popular Suggestions

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??
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.
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…
Optimisation for the new arm based windows machines
I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I have a couple of suggestions that I think could make Bluebeam even better. First off, I've been really impressed with the new ARM-based Windows machines, especially those using the Snapdragon Elite X. They’re powerful, have great battery life—kind of like MacBooks in…
Editable Table
I'd like to create/insert a table into Bluebeam Revu that I can edit like any other markup.
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?
