A 'READ ALOUD' Transcription Feature
I open and review a lot of legal contracts using Bluebeam. It would be nice to have an option to have an audio playback feature, like on Word, that identifies and reads the text for those that are visually impaired.
CAPS LOCK setting for text
It would be nice to be able to set text to be in CAPS by default. I suggest this would be a button similar to Underline, Strikethrough, Bold, Italic, etc. We prefer all comments to be in caps when preparing markups (text box and text with leaders). Obviously, the work around is to hit the caps lock key on the keyboard,…
Add pictures to comments Bluebeam Cloud
The possibility to send not only text messages in the comment chats for markups, but also pictures (opens the camera directly)
Snag report numbering
In the automatically generated Snag PDF reports, it would be helpful if numbers would be assigned to the individual snags to match the points on the plan in the Snag report
Snag report customization
The possibility to select the language of the PDF Snap Reports on the one hand, but also to select what should be included in the report.
Notifications Bluebeam Cloud
The ability to configure what triggers an email notification in Bluebeam Cloud and when (e.g. new snags once a day)
Custom default settings for Studio Sessions
We would love to be able to have customizable default settings for Studio Sessions. We start numerous studio sessions a day with the same settings each time. This would save time from having to select each setting.
Align polylength Caption first segment
Currently you can only align a polylength caption to the end segment as is default. The option to align the caption to the first/starting segment would be great in many applications such as measuring distances to a fire exit.
Signing and stamping engineering drawings
Have the signature and stamp have an ability to save the parameters, so when I sign and stamp it automatically goes to the location, I want it. Now, I have to set the attributes, and move the signature block and the stamp every time. See attached for picture.
Slip Sheeting - Different Size Pages
We are a municipality that utilizes Bluebeam for permit application plans review. We slip sheet revised drawings into the original drawing package. We are not quite sure how - but sometimes the revised drawing differs in size from the original. The slip sheet function will shrink the revised drawing on the page. When using…
Ability to turn off and On as needed the Custom Columns in the Column Display Order.
Hello, For some reason I member back in later versions of Revu, we were able to turn off and On as needed the Custom Columns in the Column Display Order. However, lately I have seen we are unable to do that anymore. Being able to do this allows my team the freedom to customize their work. Depending on what they are working…
Dark Mode / Invert Colors
It would be fantastic if Revu had a dark mode for the display of PDF's. Just like MS Word has a dark mode for sheets and makes them black and inverses the colors. Basically would like the PDF background to be black with the colors inverted. Would be great if there was even a configuration menu to custom define the inverse…
Open several documents into Bluebeam for iPad
Hello, I would like to open several documents from the local storage at once into Bluebeam for iPad. So far it´s only possible to open each document individually. Even though you select several documents and open them via "Teilen" (Share) into Bluebeam, only one document will open in Bluebeam. Open via options → Teilen →…
Split Area measures
It would be a great bonus to be able to split an area measure. This is advantageous for breaking works completed from an overall measure. The cut-out function does not allow a separation and break to create 2 new independent areas.
Choice Custom Column Options
It would be great for choice items to be able to be assigned multiple subjects so they appear for different markup subjects not only one. It would also be very useful to have secondary or tertiary options to have choice items appear based on other selections, not just subject.

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?
