This week, we’re highlighting Layers in Bluebeam Revu. Layers let you organize content, making it easy to show or hide different elements like markups or design details.
How have you used layers to keep your documents organized?
Layers are great so it's a shame that when you try to use a parent and child setup you can't then use a template as these settings are lost.
Solution at the moment is to just save a ordinary master pdf but if this issue can be fixed then using a template would be much better.
@vfrench - This suggestion may be slightly different than what you're suggesting above, but I think it's in line with what you're saying. If not, please correct me! Either way, please submit this feedback to us!
Also - Layers is a topic that's being discussed next week! RSVP here if you're interested in discussing Layers with your peers!

Hi @Angela Aff .
I have the layers in the template exactly how I want them - parent and child layers all look fine. I've then even created and named a new configuration.
However, as soon as I open a new drawing from the template, all of the setting are lost and I'm just left with one long list of layers - no parent or child settings.
Welcome to the #BluebeamSupportSeries! As part of our Bluebeam Support Series, we’re highlighting some of the most common questions and issues our Support Team has recently seen. Today’s post focuses on: Revu showing as Unpaid or Unassigned, where markup tools and other functions appear grayed out. A member of the Bluebeam…
With the new Bluebeam Cloud app, many of my foreman have switched from the old Revu app to this, and have requested a sorting feature. Right now it's only showing their jobs in numberic/alphabetic order. When we label our jobs, they get the job number first. So the most recent jobs are at the very bottom of the list. If…
It would be really helpful to be able to add layers AFTER a bluebeam session has been initiated. We use the layers to assign markups to particular users, which then allows them to filter their tasks.
You can create Layer Configurations to control the layers within a PDF but that must be done manually for each PDF currently. I would like a way to import and export these configurations. I have thousands of layers, so doing this manually is not feasible. Ideally, I would like a human readable / editable format (such as…
Does anyone know if there is a quick way (or any way) to do a bulk 'Find & Replace' on a markup? For example, I have x number of yellow widgets on a markup but the specification changes and I need to replace all the yellow ones with red ones instead. I want to be able to tell Revu to find all the yellow widgets, delete…
Currently, Azure deployment of Entra for GCCH clients cant connect with Bluebeam's SSO configuration tool, in order to deploy SSO on our company's machines. I realize that our company may be ahead of the curb on this, as we are working towards full CMMC certification, but this version of the .us azure tenant will be needed…
I would like to know if there is a way to search throughout a file or set to references a detail on a page? In other words, I want to do a reverse search from a fine detail, all the way up the drawings.
There was an error rendering this rich post.
As I understand it, Revu for iOS will be removed from the App Store at the end of this year. Users are recommended to use Cloud instead, which imo hasn’t caught up with Revu for iOS, yet. Furthermore Revu for iOS could be used by users for editing in Studio Project without a subscription. Will Cloud also support this? I’m…
In the past month or so, bluebeam has been crashing when editing text boxes. Doesn't always happen, but this is extremely frustrating. It's also been buggy with properties menus disappearing or showing properties for a markup that I didn't select.
