Remove/Edit the "Comments" section in the Tool Chest

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When a measurement is in "Properties" mode, it doesn't have any data in the "Comments" column. We want to either remove the column or move it after the "Label" column. We did some research, and it seems like this Comments column can't be modified or removed.

Hi @Ari S Rejtman, thank you for this feedback! I will look into this and get back to you.

@Alan A I got your reply via email, but I don't see it in this thread. You wrote, "It should be possible to move the column left or right, or even hide the column completely (as depicted in the screenshot below). Is there any additional information you can share that might help us reproduce this? (e.g. what version of Bluebeam Revu you are using)". A markup in Properties Mode is found in the Tool Chest, so I'm not referring to the Comments Column in the Markups List. When a tool group is categorized by "Detail" compared to "Symbol", a comments "column" appears. This is what I'm referring to. I'm using Revu 21.1

Got it, thanks @Ari S Rejtman! I did think you were talking about the mark-up list at first. You are correct, there is not a way of editing that functionality in Tool Chest. Thanks for the feedback, we will take this into consideration in the future!

This is a huge headache for me as well. I keep my Tools on the left side and I don't have any comments that I need to see, but I do need to see my labels which are squished by the comments column. I can't wait for this to get fixed.

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.
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…
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…
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.
