The session feature is inconvenient because it restricts users from editing markups created by others. It would be helpful to have a function that allows only authorized users to edit them. Does such a feature exist?
If you want markups to be editable, perhaps use Bluebeam Studio Projects rather than Sessions - any invited user can be given permissions to edit.
Making this switch limits the collaborative qualities of a Session, though. It all depends on the big picture of what you aim to achieve.
Here's a technical support article that answers this question.
Session Markups locked and can't be edited
Basically, you can only edit the markup YOU made IN the Session. Outside of that, you'd have to download the file, edit it in Revu, and then upload the new version to the Session.
As others have said, you can't do this. You might want to consider re-posting in Product Feedback — your desire for the ability to have (controlled) editability of others' markups in a Session is definitely needed.

Hello, Is it possible to have Bluebeam Studio automatically sync all studio files to a local server in lieu of Bluebeam's cloud servers? My office is exploring the idea of getting all of my project observers an iPad with cellular data so that they can have Bluebeam Studio (or rather Bluebeam Cloud) at all times. Should…

Our IT department has been slowly upgrading our users to Windows 11. A few of our users have been experiencing really bad lag with creating, moving, modifying markups. This happens both in Session and with locally saved files. It seems to only be happening to our users with virtual/cloud computers. Specifically, we use…
What is up with the invisible text while editing a markup? This has been a recurring and persistent phenomenon that has remained through several updates of the BB subscription, over perhaps the last year. I create a markup with text, I double-click to edit said text and it becomes INVISIBLE (but is still there). I click…
Hi All, I accidentally added a layer at the end of the long list of existing layers. Has anyone found a way to reorder the layer list? I would also like to hide one of the layers I created by default and open it only when I need it. Is this possible? Thank you ahead, Ian
Here is my issue folks - clicking on a web link in a document does not open in the default browser, but in one of my other installed browsers. This behavior is experienced only with Bluebeam and one Trimble software, the rest of my installed applications obey my default browser setting. Has anyone encountered such issue…
I have recently upgraded to Revu 21 but the markup tools are greyed out so i am unable to use them. Does anyone have any ideas why this would be?
I used to know I two-key keyboard shortcut to re-size a cloud mark-up to more closely fit the text block it surrounds. I have forgotten it and can't find any information on it online. Can anyone help? Thanks
I'm trying to create a form that requires both signatures and initials. However, I can't seem to find a way to format the field for just initials. Is there a better way to do this other than using a text box?
