Thumbnail Scrolling

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When scrolling the thumbnails, instead of scrolling smoothly, the thumbnails jump or skip several pages up or down. I find this to be frustrating when editing my document via thumbnails because I have to pay extra close attention to verify I'm deleting the correct page or adding a page in the correct slot. With smooth scrolling, I can keep my eye on the sheet of interest when scrolling up or down. (I edit documents a lot with this method) This was one feature I underappreciated about Adobe before I switched to Bluebeam and lost it.

Propose separating the thumbnail selection with the currently viewed thumbnail indicator (right now they are one and the same).

It would be great if you could select a thumbnail, and be able to scroll through the main sheets without the thumbnail selection changing. Since the thumbnails scroll with the main sheets, maybe a separate indicator can be shown to identify the thumbnail with the sheet shown. Then, one can shift+select or ctrl+select the present thumbnail to modify sheets including the previously selected sheet. This can be done now, but one has to rely on scrolling through the thumbnails and these are not easily viewed. It would be much easier to do this while scrolling through the main sheets so you can see what sheets you want to edit much more clearly.

For clarification, the current indicator used for both thumbnail selection and currently viewed sheet is a blue outline around the thumbnail.

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.
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.
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…
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…
