I have a new issue whereby every time i open Bluebeam, it creates me an additional "My Tools" chest….i now have 16 Tool chests named "My Tools"!?! They also cant be deleted so they are growing. Anyone have any ideas?
Probably you stored the profile in a different folder than the default Bluebeam is using (appdata/roaming). If you move your profile there and relink to that folder from the profile settings, these duplicates will be removed and everything works as normal. Hopefully this issue will be patched out soon.
Yes, this has something to do with the storage location if it is anywhere other than the default. Mine are stored in Dropbox so I'm encountering this. I've been in contact with Bluebeam Technical Support and they are looking into this issue. No fixes yet though!
Same here. Do you have any solution to this?
Although Bluebeam are working on this, there isn't an estimated date for when there will be a fix. Their suggestion is to save the Toolsets in Dropbox (or whatever you are using) but to keep the profiles in the default folder.
This isn't happening to mine, but I also have mine marked as "read-only" so it can't be accidentally updated.
So mine is saved on OneDrive (both my profile and tool chests), but on all of them I've right-clicked on the file —> Properties —> check the box next to Read-Only.
If you guys have your profile stored on Dropbox, OneDrive, or something similar, perhaps you can restore to an earlier version that isn't experiencing this, and then lock the file as read-only?
Thanks Liz. My problem is that I'm constantly updating so don't think I can save as read only. What I have been told to try is saving the Profile to the default location but the Toolboxes to Dropbox - not tried this yet though.
Hi. I've been having the same issue. Our profiles were saved to a drive on our network, not the default on our PC local drives. I've just re-routed everything back to the default folder on my PC and it's partially fixed the issue. When I open the profile now there are no extra duplicates created, but the ones that had already sneaked into the profile I'm currently using are still there, but at least now they remain unchecked so don't keep showing up as open tool sets. BTW, I've reverted back to 21.5 for now. I've not heard anything from Bluebeam to say they've fixed 21.6. In fact, I've heard nothing from Bluebeam despite numerous attempts to get some answers.
They have not fixed this specific issue, but they are aware of it and have been able to recreate the problem.
What do you mean by "constantly"?
If it's once a week or less, I think marking it as read-only would be doable. You just uncheck the read-only box, then Save Profile, then check the box again. It's not too bad.
But if it's multiple times each day, that may be an issue. But, at the same time, if it's that frequent I'd wonder why and if there's something you can do to minimize needing to update it so often.
It depends on which profile I'm using.
Some such as that for measuring retaining walls basically never get changed. However, those such as the one for measuring brickwork are changed for things like where I change the weight of custom line styles to suit the scale of the drawing being measured. I'm back to using the defaul location at te moment and will move everything again once a fix is found.
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?
