Bluebeam Presence Expansion in Canada

Doug McLean · 2025-05-30T17:29:45+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Does anyone else feel like Bluebeam needs to expand their presence in Canada?
Any ideas on what more Bluebeam themselves could do?

It seems like we don't have resellers here like US CAD or ATG doing their bit to promote the product.

Oh, and this in no way takes anything away from David Rekker and his team in Quelph. I know its a big country. Its hard to get to everyone.

Hey @Doug McLean! This is great feedback.

I know you asked your peers for ideas, but if you have any ideas, please share them too!

For everyone: I definitely have questions, but I want to hear from all of you first!

It just seems that the resellers here do nothing to promote the product.
I'm pretty sure they don't offer any kind of training, and definitely not in the way that both US CAD and ATG do.
The focus here seems to be on the major construction companies.
That may be the reason why there are no BUG groups up here. The Edmonton one just kind of died.

I'd also like to see an event in Canada maybe. Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, or Calgary are more than capable of hosting Unbound, or even a one day event.

When this happens, I can't move a directory with that file. This reddit post solved it for me. You just need to disable the recent file list in Revu. But I would like to use the recent file list feature someday, now that I have to turn it off. Please fix this Bluebeam. Thanks.…
Mass Watermarking Tool
I think it would be useful to have a tool to mark several/all pages in a PDF with a watermark. In my specific case, I'm trying to note that a specification in a project manual still needs updates, but to do so in a manner that looks polished and professional. If a tool like this already exists, it would be useful if it…

Reorder layers and hiding layers on opening a file.
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

Setting up Studio to Sync to a Local Server
Hello, Is it possible to have Bluebeam Studio automatically sync all studio files to a local server in lieu of Bluebeam's cloud servers?
