Bluebeam needs an autosave option and better save prompts

Bluebeam Revu needs an autosave option like what exists in Word where you can set it to save every so often in case it crashes or something happens to your computer. Also, I know it's supposed to prompt you to save changes when marking up a PDF, but that function doesn't seem to work consistently. If I accidentally close the whole program instead of an individual PDF there's no prompt to save your unsaved changes. I lost several hours worth of work this way.

I could support this as long as its a timed interval. Honestly, its the first thing I turn off in O365.
Saving after every mouse click would cause more problems than it solves.
One solution may be an auto save on close.

I just get in the habit of using either <ctrl> + S or <shift> + F2.

Totally agree. Word let's you set the save interval. I have mine set to save every 5 min.

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.

Bluebeam Revu - Bulk Remove and Archive from Studio Session
I would like to remove and save approx. 10 pdfs from a studio session to condense the list to the most current files. The process of deleting individual files and saving a local copy is rather tedious. Is there a way to streamline the process?
Fine tune Snapshots on a Page
Long post for context: Yesterday I was trying to compare a revised architectural to realize that the floor plan has shifted in both the X and Y, so this morning I did a page snapshot. What I would like to know is, is there a way to snap to a point on the snapshot and move it to a point on the drawing?
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…

Hi Bluebeam. Isn't it possible for you to make a continuous measurement like the one shown? regards Claus
Symbolic link to shift studio session data to other drive?
Hi, I want to ask here if Bluebeam product support creating symbolic link for the studio session files being stored at C disk. The need arises because session files are taking up a large space on C disk. I am looking for options to shift this data to other drives and make up space.
Measurements
Every Time I load a document, it says this document has a protected scale and won't let me measure anything. Anyone have any suggestions. Thanks
