specifically Typewriter/text box tool stopped working, not selecting

Hi I'm new here, joined to ask this questions. I started having an issue this week, where when I select the typewriter tool or text box nothing happens, pretty much rendering useless a big part of bluebeam for me. driving me nuts. Tried the basics, or re-opening, different files, restarting, different profiles, etc. measurement tools are working fine. Anyone have an issue like that? Hoping to not have to reinstall.

Hey @Timofey Abramov! Are you logged in to your subscription? When you're signed in, you should see your email address instead of the "Sign In" copy where the box is at.

Yes, I called technical support and they determined it was a corrupted profile as the issue happened again after we reset Bluebeam. They placed the profile and tool chests directly into the Bluebeam folder, versus previously importing it from a local folder, and it has been working fine for a couple hours now (fingers crossed)

How do I get bluebeam "Sets" to mark out any changes from old drawing sets.
I'm trying to figure out how "sets" works in Bluebeam to mark out the old documents and showing me the new changes in the addendums. when I create a set in Bluebeam and run it, they seem to be the same, but I can clearly see changes in design or whatever they are changing in the new addendums.
Org Admin - User Contact Details

Why does Sharepoint in Bluebeam Cloud work but not OneDrive?

Tab Order Not Saved? ...to USBUG
Reposting this from Peer Support to USBUG: Since upgrading to 21.6.1, it seems I have to rearrange order of the tabs on each BB OPEN.

Free Trial
Hi, I’ve just signed up for a 14-day trial. I received the confirmation email saying “Your trial has started” and Bluebeam Cloud works fine. However, in Revu 21 desktop it still shows Package: Unassigned and only opens in Viewer mode. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Signed in with my BBID (the same email that received the…
Is there a way to set Print permission as a default for all Studio Session attendees?
Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get some clarity on managing permissions in Bluebeam Studio Sessions. Specifically, I’ve noticed that while attendees get default permissions like Save As, Markup, and Add Documents, Print isn’t included by default and has to be manually enabled for each user in every session. With the number of…
Return Button!
Introduce a return function in Bluebeam! For example; Let's say there are annotations on the floor plan that have hyperlinks that take you to that annotated elevation and from there you click another annotation marker on the elevations that takes you to that detail and if you want to go back, you either have to remember…
