Old plans often have some skew or distortion as a result of the way they were scanned - which means that scaled linear measurements may not be entirely accurate - would love to have a way to auto-correct the skew and distortion! [I posted this on my first post in the "win an Amazon gift card" but is seems more appropriate…
💥One new feature I would totally love to see added to the measuring tools is the ability to define a scaled axis (or a set of axes). Like an x and y axis you could just plop on a graph or cross-section. The next step would be to use that axis set to generate a list of coordinates based on the points you click on - similar…
When marking on pdfs I often need several different types of text, leaders, lines, etc. It slows me down to have to go to the toolbox each time to switch back and forth for commonly used things. It would be really helpful if the user could just hit the shortcut key more than once to cycle through multiple saved default…
We often get long pdf documents that are flattened text which have changes tracked in color or underline and deletions struck out. These changes can be very difficult and time-consuming to look for and currently requires flipping through every page and manually identifying each change. Please add the ability to search for…
Option for the markup lists to show markups for entire drawing set. Currently it only shows markups for the active pdf drawing. If your drawing set is made of multiple individual pdf files or if you add an addendum to your drawing set that replaces pages, the Markups list is basically useless. The same could be said for…
it is pain AND select a person / group of people in the BB session alert. Please consider giving better interface for that - such as sorting, recent etc..
One way we track punchlist items is by marking them "In progress" once an item has been started. That acknowledges the contractor's work, and enables the design team to focus elsewhere. Currently, the options of Open, Ready for Review, Out of Scope, and Closed don't capture this nuance of the work. Can Punchlist statuses…
I sometimes work with multiple sets of PDF drawings for the same building. I then split the PDF view vertically or horizontally so I can have one section of the drawings open in one section of the screen and another section on the other side. For example, this could be an architectural set and an electrical set with views…
In Revu I've flattened markups and unchecked "Allow Markup Recovery (Unfaltten). But using Adobe Acrobat or Autodesk Construction Cloud I can still undo this. How can this be possible?
I think bluebeam should really add a feature so that an existing line style can be copied to make a new one instead of making everything from the scratch.
When using the Batch Slip Sheet tool, replaced sheets breaks your previously created bookmarks. After slip sheeting, the bookmarks correspond to the order of whatever you slipped in. For example, if you had a bookmark list of 100 sheets and slip in 10 sheets. The first 10 bookmarks will correspond to the new 10 sheets.…

The Navigation Bar automatically is placed at the bottom of the screen. When the screen width is reduced you lose the ability to flip pages. These fields should be fixed to not change when the screen width narrows.
Hello, I´d like to copy and paste an existing page in Bluebeam for iPad. So far it is only possible to insert a new/empty page. This feature would be very helpfull!!
A tool or way to import Revit hatches directly into Bluebeam should be added so engineering plan markups can match the intent of the resulting plan set.

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 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…
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.
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.
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.
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…
This has been requested many many times in the past by many Revu users. WHY is there STILL no numbered/bulleted list function??
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…
I'd like to create/insert a table into Bluebeam Revu that I can edit like any other markup.
Just curious if there is a feature that can be added. The company I work for uses a network that will give access to pdf drawing files and the files are locked when someone has them open. I am wondering if there is a way we can add the feature to see who has the file open instead of it saying "locked by another user" as…
