Sometimes right click will drop it, but most times I must select a new tool before escape will work. and no, my reuse markup tool is not engaged when this happens.
I've experienced this too from time to time. I think it's just a quirk of some tools to need overridden instead of just being backed out of. I could be wrong about that, but I have most of the common tools set to keyboard shortcuts that serve me just fine so I usually just choose the next tool and keep going anyways. Could you tell us which tools you've experienced that with today?
When it gets sticky, all tool types refuse the escape key option. If it gets particularly stubborn, I save all that is open and reboot Revu. 3 out of 5 times that settles it. Where it's particularly burdensome is when I want to type into the placed markup. The cursor won't appear until I've dropped the sticky tool.
I just don't know how to replicate that. The only time I've had even a little trouble with a tool getting stuck, I just needed to hit the hotkey for another similar tool and it would let go of the one I was stuck on. When that didn't work, I might end up crashing Bluebeam, but the doc loads back up with the backup version. Never been a big issue. Have you reached out to Bluebeam's support directly?
Thank you for getting back to me. I tried to find that support option unsuccessfully. Is how I ended up trying this route. Please advise on how I might connect to that service. This issue has an impact on productivity and the workarounds are tedious. I love the functionality Bluebeam offers to our production team, just wishing I could move a bit faster with it.
You can find tech support in the app. Go to Help > Technical Support. Then you can search for your issue or go to the bottom of the page and select 'Submit a Ticket'.
I've always been pleased with Bluebeam's Support team. Maybe someone else will swoop in with an answer, but this is the best I an offer with my experience. lol
I let my subscription lapse, uninstalled REVU, got a new opportunity and resubscribed. Installed new REVU package but when it starts it seems to be looking at the old, lapsed subscription. I can see the new subscription in Webstore but haven't found a way to get REVU to drop the old serial number and pickup the new one.…
Hi, I’ve just signed up for a 14-day trial. I received the confirmation email saying “Your trial has started” and Bluebeam Cloud works fine. However, in Revu 21 desktop it still shows Package: Unassigned and only opens in Viewer mode. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Signed in with my BBID (the same email that received the…
Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get some clarity on managing permissions in Bluebeam Studio Sessions. Specifically, I’ve noticed that while attendees get default permissions like Save As, Markup, and Add Documents, Print isn’t included by default and has to be manually enabled for each user in every session. With the number of…
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…
Hey all, I understand the new Bluebeam Cloud app on iPadOS is being constantly improved, but is there going to be a way to open a marked up pdf from third parties like Microsoft One Drive? Are you guys looking into giving users the ability to turn on/off layers? I do layouts for the electrical installations on my projects…
Hello everyone, I work in the telecommunications field and frequently provide plan markups for various roadway projects. These plans often come in a wide range of scales—from 1" = 20' to 1" = 100'. I’m wondering if there’s a way to copy markups from a plan with one scale (e.g., 1" = 40') and paste them into another plan…
My team primarily uses custom objects for their take offs, we've set up tool boxes with all of our common size options. What we run into is when doing a large take off layout the objects handles will fully overlap other objects and make to where we cannot select objects and delete or manipulate them, or we'll grab an…
BlueBeam Community I just transitioned to a new Fire & Life Safety company in the recent days. By any chance, would anyone be willing to share fire alarm set for my tool chest on BlueBeam? Or provide me with a good site to download a few good fire alarm tool chests.
The last couple of weeks I have had a problem. When I click on a Session it starts to load it and then kicks me out of the Session and gives me this exact same message: After I select OK I can re-enter the Session I was trying to review without an issue. This happens every time I enter a Session that I was not in recently…
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 Specs, Project 2 CA Set, Project 2 Revisions.…
