I miss having the Loupe tool that Acrobat has, where you can magnify a small area, without having to change your zoom level or position.
Are you using a 3 button mouse with a wheel? I have found the zoom/pan with a wheel mouse quite intuitive to zoom in to view specific areas and then back out to the larger area quickly… never thought about needing a separate tool for that.
I do this with split screen. I pop out the second view and make it a smaller window. by defualt in floats above your base instance on Bluebeam (i drag it on and off screen as required). And i can also keep Thumbnails open. This way I have my main drawing, a zoomed portion and a thumbnail that shows me where I zoomed into. For drawing reviews, I would use the floating window to zoom in on project or construction notes, or smaller drawing details. If you have mastered the use of the scroll wheel on your mouse then this works quickly (scroll when 'fit to page' is enabled, ctrl+scroll when 'scrolling pages' is enabled). There are other ways to zoom in and out but they are slower.
I agree that the loupe tool was quick and nimble to zoom into just a portion of the pdfs. Wish it was an added tool.
Agreed, @CFKellogg - I miss the Loupe tool. It's faster and less cumbersome than any other method I've seen.
I wish for the tool, too, @Andrea
As a Windows, Mac & Linux user plus Bentley cad products, GIS, Google Earth, different browsers, scrolling techniques, shortcut keys, it's frustrating with everything so different and backwards, one from the other. Much easier with the Loupe, but I ditched Acrobat. I have too much muscle memory on too many apps that I constantly get it mixed up everywhere.
Oh well, I'll have to settle for the lesser.
