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.
Is there a way to set a customized Tool Chest/Tool Box as the "My Tools" default, so that the symbols/markups you have in your custom set can have the number shortcuts?

What's up ya'll?! Does anyone else have a recurring copy/paste issue where you are not allowed to copy a markup and paste onto a different sheet within the same file? This has only recently appeared. The issue is resolved when I restart my computer but simply restarting bluebeam does not solve the issue. I am on the latest…

Heya, How does one define which textbox gets taken over when you define a sequence on a tool? I created 3 groups and created the textboxes in alphabetical order and in different placements. However, the sequencing chose a random textbox to replace the text with "1" on every one. How do I define which of the 3 textboxes…
How can i take-off materials quicker using blue beam. I normally see autocad PDF's. Ive tried exporting the comments but i would need to build a formula. Very time consuming.
