This week, we're highlighting the Help button in the Revu menu!

Have you ever explored how helpful the Help menu really is?

Think of it as your in-app navigation tool that allows you to quickly access resources, without ever having to leave Revu:

» Learn by accessing Bluebeam University

»Refresh your memory

» Find Tools + Commands

» Launch the Welcome to Revu Help guide (this is one of my personal favorites)

» Access Bluebeam Community

Connect with Bluebeam users like you to ask questions and meet new people
Submit product ideas & suggestions - while they're at the top of your mind

» Get technical support

» Onboard new users

Welcome to Revu (F12 keyboard shortcut)
- Launch Revu tutorials
- Access a sample file

Tell us!

Do you frequently use the Help tool?
Is there something available in the Help tool that you didn't know existed?

…Let's hear it!
