I would love BB studio to reconnect automatically. I am sick of the pop ups and barriers to keep working when I have to tell it to reconnect to the BB studio. Anyone have a solution?
Do you know why it's disconnecting?
Are you connected by wi-fi or a hardline?
BB loses connection every time I log off, un-dock etc. I wouldn't care as much but just about every action that happens in BB with a progress bar prevents you from doing anything else in the program. I don't need to see the status, I'm trying to work on other things while BB connects.
I would both like Bluebeam to more aggressively attempt automatic reconnects and to also make it much more obvious in the UI when disconnected and working offline. I found some good examples of indicators at https://ux.stackexchange.com/a/89705/162139
The reason for this is confusion I've observed with some mechanics and electricians on my team. We use Bluebeam so that we can all have the latest schematic redline markups. I've noticed they normally have the Bookmarks pane visible and not the Studio pane. Since there is literally nothing in the UI telling them they're working offline, they can be working offline for days before noticing a schematic discrepancy compared with someone else's computer, and only then do they notice they've been working offline.
The existing popup seems reasonable, but in my experience at least 80% of users ignore every popup from every application and click whichever button they happen to mouse over first.
Yes, that is also an issue I have seen. Bluebeam used to be cutting edge, it has fallen off with minimal improvements over the last 5 years. We also want a less secure version of studio sessions where multiple users can edit each others markups. Asked for that 7-8 years ago…crickets.
It occurs to me that if Bluebeam can't/won't implement auto-reconnect functionality, then at the very least give us an option to prohibit working offline. It's caused enough problems that I'd rather users couldn't see the PDFs at all during an actual extended internet outage. That seems like it'd be less of a problem than the silently-going-offline issue.
Just attended my first Tips & Tricks webinar earlier this week. It was great! Today I received an email from Stephanie with a link to watch an on-demand video. Unfortunately, I'm not able to visit the site (I receive an error message - see below)
Is there a tool which can apply a template to an existing PDF document? I can do it with the overlay tool, but its not efficient. I am currently specifically attempting to apply a letterhead to a PDF document without having to using snapshot, etc.
We were messing with settings now all the tools in my tool box are numbered and now I can't find the setting to get rid of the numbers next to the tools.
Long post for context: Yesterday I was trying to compare a revised architectural to realize that the floor plan has shifted in both the X and Y, so this morning I did a page snapshot. What I would like to know is, is there a way to snap to a point on the snapshot and move it to a point on the drawing?
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 I'm new here, joined to ask this questions. I started having an issue this week, where when I select the typewriter tool or text box nothing happens, pretty much rendering useless a big part of bluebeam for me. driving me nuts. Tried the basics, or re-opening, different files, restarting, different profiles, etc.…
I'm trying to figure out how "sets" works in Bluebeam to mark out the old documents and showing me the new changes in the addendums. when I create a set in Bluebeam and run it, they seem to be the same, but I can clearly see changes in design or whatever they are changing in the new addendums.
As an Org Admin user I have the ability to add users and delete users and assign the product, but is there a way to edit an existing user Contact Details? When I attempt to update a user's Contact Details everything is greyed out and will not let me make any changes.
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…
