Feel like I'm losing my mind. but I save my custom column to profile but every time I bring in a new PDF it removes it. What can be causing this. I have saved my profile and custom multiple times a day
That's a bit odd, but try one thing.
Try saving your Profile after you've saved your custom column layout.
If the file you're opening has had custom columns created in it, that will take priority over your customizations. You'll need to reload the XML of your custom columns export into that PDF.
@Doug McLean if the document @Chuckie Weaver is bringing in already has custom columns doe he need to export his custom column setup from a previous document and then import them into the new document? Seems as if this has come up before?
could be. I always save an XML file of my Custom Column just in case I need to import them into a file.
Hey Guys, thanks for the feedback. I believe the piping isometric drawings for some reason or other this time has custom columns. but I'm about to try it on a different drawing to see what happens
Yea i do the same.
I believe that is what's happening. but I'm about to try a different drawing.
I've run into this before @Chuckie Weaver. I don't know if I should be pleased to see someone else is using custom columns or frustrated because it messes up my workflow… 😎
well, if it pleases you lol. I have beaten my head up against the wall. lol but I actually redefined it to formulas as well. and Bluebeam would remove itself off the screen every time I would save it.
Maybe I should have said "impressed". 😎
Always fun to find someone else who uses Revu beyond the basics. 🤓
Has anyone else had any trouble with the order of custom columns being thrown off at random times? (trying to identify a pattern so I can avoid whatever I might be doing wrong, but seems more like a bug to me).
Yes. i notice when the column set up doesnt match the custom column it self. i usually double checking it every time. I would say if you are moving it around at the bottom. you also need to move it around in the column section itself
I have the same problem. I can add custoim columns only the first time when I make a new profile. After closing and reopening I can add or change the custom columns bug I can not add the the chnanges to the profile.
Just wondering what everyone is using in the field other than an IPad? Any Galaxy Tab, etc. users out there? If so, have you got any feedback?
I’m using Bluebeam Revu 21.8 – Complete and trying to streamline navigation in a drawing set. My goal is to auto-create hyperlinks from callouts (e.g. 5/A401) that jump directly to the referenced detail viewport, not just to the destination sheet as a whole. I understand that Bluebeam can create page-to-page links, but I’m…
New Year new problems😶 we are trying to setup our field iPads to use BlueBeam and are having issues.

Good afternoon, I'm dealing with plans where every page is a differant scale. When I switch the scale on a differant page, it changes qunatities for all pages. I tried using viewports but it won't show me the total rollup on the bottom of the whole project. Any ideas? Thank you!
Just wondering if anyone else has had this error message pop up in the last few days?
Did something change in Bluebeam on December 17th? Up through December 16th, the email subject line for all of my incoming Bluebeam invites were formatted with the project file numbers, name of municipality/project, and the submission type. Starting December 17th, the subject line for all of my Bluebeam invites say "You've…
Hi All, I moved some .pdfs in my studio folder around and that has wreaked havoc on the revisioning of my Set. Is there a way to remove the Superseded stamp and return the individual sheets to the current revision status? Thanks ahead, Ian

Is their any way to import a "standard list" of measurement items that I could use on multiple projects without having to type them each time I start a new project. I.E. is their an import function that could facilitate this need?
