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?
The rectangle function will allow a colored fill to be used, as will the ellipse function. Is there a way to "fill" an area that is defined by a polyline?
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…
What is the schedule for enabling Cloud to allow batch stamping and signing of pdfs along with digital signatures as is available in Revu on Windows? It would be most helpful to be able to access, stamp, and sign drawings on an ipad instead of carrying laptops.
I wish we had subcategories under Toolchest. I have made tools for every category of plumbing using the Norwegian standard for naming them. But I wish there were subcategories for that as well. There are a lot of tools to create. I have also made my own linestyle for every one of the pipe tools. It have been easier if I…
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!
Is there an option or way to disable the feature that allows a double left click to prompt the area box that allows you to zoom?
this change from Bluebeam for iPad to Bluebeam cloud just made the program useless. When we are in the field, attaching a photo to a markup was 80% of the point, so when exporting a summary, the photo would be with the callout. How is this most-used feature gone? I am just now finding this out at 1am and have to travel in…
New Year new problems😶 we are trying to setup our field iPads to use BlueBeam and are having issues. BB Support indicate the iPad app is no longer supported as of Dec 2025 and to use the web portal app.bluebeam.com, when we enter the web portal address in the iPad browser it directs us to download the mobile app. What is…
Just wondering if anyone else has had this error message pop up in the last few days?
