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.
Hi everyone, We’re currently using Intune-managed iPads for our Engineers, locked down as “Bluebeam iPads.” This setup works well for us, but with the recent announcement that Revu is being discontinued, we’re concerned about functionality moving forward. One of the key requirements for us is the ability to print PDFs on…
Hey all, I understand the new Bluebeam Cloud app on iPadOS is being constantly improved, but is there going to be a way to open a marked up pdf from third parties like Microsoft One Drive? Are you guys looking into giving users the ability to turn on/off layers? I do layouts for the electrical installations on my projects…
Hello everyone, I work in the telecommunications field and frequently provide plan markups for various roadway projects. These plans often come in a wide range of scales—from 1" = 20' to 1" = 100'. I’m wondering if there’s a way to copy markups from a plan with one scale (e.g., 1" = 40') and paste them into another plan…
My team primarily uses custom objects for their take offs, we've set up tool boxes with all of our common size options. What we run into is when doing a large take off layout the objects handles will fully overlap other objects and make to where we cannot select objects and delete or manipulate them, or we'll grab an…
BlueBeam Community I just transitioned to a new Fire & Life Safety company in the recent days. By any chance, would anyone be willing to share fire alarm set for my tool chest on BlueBeam? Or provide me with a good site to download a few good fire alarm tool chests.
The last couple of weeks I have had a problem. When I click on a Session it starts to load it and then kicks me out of the Session and gives me this exact same message: After I select OK I can re-enter the Session I was trying to review without an issue. This happens every time I enter a Session that I was not in recently…
Since upgrading to 21.6.1, it seems I have to rearrange order of the tabs on each BB OPEN. I commonly start with about half a dozen tabs open for a couple of most active projects. I like to have them in order of Project 1 Specs, Project 1 CA Set, Project 1 Revisions, Project 2 Specs, Project 2 CA Set, Project 2 Revisions.…
When selecting text in Bluebeam Revu the cursor often behaves erratically and jumps around the page, highlighting areas that I don't want highlighted. How can I precisely select only the text I want to highlight?

I'm trying to load a document with fillable form fields into a Bluebeam Studio session so that when attendees join the session, they can complete their portions of the form. However, when I add the document to the Studio session, all the form fields lock and cannot be filled. How can I make the fields fillable?
