Flip Back Pages

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I'm often in a plan and will click on a link to a detail. Then after panning around and making notes I have to find my way back to the sheet I was on previously. It would be nice to have a button to go back where I left off. Also thinking of when reviewing a paper set of plan - if I wanted to make a quick look between the RCP and the mechanical plan for example, I would just put a hand in each page and flip back and forth. Challenge with Bluebeam is the section I'm zoomed into on one page isn't the same section I want to see on the other. So using the Previous View and Next View buttons don't work that well.

I was going to recommend the previous view button, but I see that doesn't work for you now.

I use BB to markup my drawings for takeoffs.
The best solution I've found is to split the screen vertically (Shortcut for me - "V") and leave my floor plan on the left and then my elevations on the right. When I come across a detail, I'll split again and use the far right screen for my details. This way, I have all the views - plan, elevation & detail open and in front of me at the same time for a more thorough cross reference.

Edit/Unlock markups in Studio Sessions
Please add the ability to allow some users to edit/delete other peoples comments. This can be controlled through permissions. At our organisation when reviewing drawings there is a review manager that consolidates comments before sending them back. This process occurs regardless of if we are using Bluebeam or another tool.…
Add Folders for Studio Sessions!
Add folders for studio sessions to organize the list of recent Studio sessions. Some of our clients utilize one Studio session per deliverable on large projects that have multiple reviewers. It can be quite a task to find the one studio session for a smaller project amidst the rows and rows of studio sessions per…
Bullet points & Indent text
With more people using bluebeam as a CAD/drawing program. It would be nice if bullet points/numbers points with auto text indent was a feature.
Auto Save
It would be helpful to have an autosave function for PDFs being used in Revu. Currently this does not exist and would be very beneficial.
Optimisation for the new arm based windows machines
I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I have a couple of suggestions that I think could make Bluebeam even better. First off, I've been really impressed with the new ARM-based Windows machines, especially those using the Snapdragon Elite X. They’re powerful, have great battery life—kind of like MacBooks in…
Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
