Hey we're trying to see if anyone has a PDF copy of a user manual for Bluebeam. I know Bluebeam university has tons of online training but if someone just wants to reference something quickly it would be great to have. Please share if you do!
Hey @bjordan!
Here are a few helpful resources for you!
https://support.bluebeam.com/revu/resources/resources.html
https://support.bluebeam.com/online-help/revu21/Content/RevuHelp/Dashboard.htm « Personally, I reference this one all the time!
Hopefully these are helpful for you!
To go off of what @Angela Aff said…
The first link is more task focused. If you need to accomplish a certain task, it's probably the better resource.
The second link is more feature focused. If you just need to get to know the software and it's ins and outs, it's the better resource.
That said, I don't know of any great Revu 21 User Manual pdfs. There's just so much to cover that you'd be looking at a bloody textbook, and then with each major update, you'd need a new manual or you'd need to do some major edits at the very least. If you can make do with the support sites I'd say those are really probably the best sources of information for general usage. There are great video series' out there as well, like Morning Coffee Revu with ATG, that dive deep into the application and deliver lots of juicy tidbits for streamlining workflows.
On the Bluebeam website, under "Resources" > "Need an older version of Revu?" there is only v20 and older. This needs new options, like v21.6. Currently the need for this is high, because v21.7 has a highly annoying "new feature" while drawing polylines, areas and contour and area measurement. Something goes visually wrong…
Since the update, my area measurements have been messing up when I try to add a curve control point while measuring. I hold ctrl + click and drag and it almost always reverts back to a straight line when I release and adds a point where my cursor was holding the curve. Also, the lines/area disappear completely if I move…
A mirror tool would be really helpful when sketching ideas.
I have added our org SharePoint to Bluebeam Cloud (website) and I can see folders as I would expect. When I add my org OneDrive account to Bluebeam Cloud I see OneDrive and PersonalCacheLibrary folders show, if I click on OneDrive, it says "Something went wrong. Please try again." Never works, and I opened a ticket and…
In our work, we frequently need to compare floor plan drawings. Often, we have to compare older drawings from archives with very new and detailed ones. The scales of these drawings often differ — sometimes from 1:100 to 1:200, but more commonly with small variations of 1–5% at a detailed level. Our current workflow is as…
I found this support article, but I don't see the options shown in the screenshot to send to Cloud. At the bottom of the tool set menu I only see Manage Tool Sets, there's no Send Tool Sets to Bluebeam Cloud.
Hi everyone, We’re currently using Intune-managed iPads for our Engineers, locked down as “Bluebeam iPads.” This setup works well for us, but with the recent announcement that Revu is being discontinued, we’re concerned about functionality moving forward. One of the key requirements for us is the ability to print PDFs on…
Introduce a return function in Bluebeam! For example; Let's say there are annotations on the floor plan that have hyperlinks that take you to that annotated elevation and from there you click another annotation marker on the elevations that takes you to that detail and if you want to go back, you either have to remember…
Reposting this from Peer Support to USBUG: Since upgrading to 21.6.1, it seems I have to rearrange order of the tabs on each BB OPEN. I commonly start with about half a dozen tabs open for a couple of most active projects. I like to have them in order of Project 1 Specs, Project 1 CA Set, Project 1 Revisions, Project 2…
