Hi,
I keep coming across the permission issues on a weekly basis between our teams that interrupts workflow substantially.
Currently, when you open a session your only option is to click "Add Documents", however, if someone forgets to click this, none of the invited participants will be able to add documents until the owner changes it manually under the Session settings/permissions. Furthermore, at the opening of a new session, you can't give full control to participants, which means you always must visit the session settings window, if you want to allow others to invite new users to the session, but most people forget about.
Some session owners can be working in different time zones, or not be available at the time when adding a new document is necessary.
I think the Bluebeam community would hugely benefit from an update that would allow users to change the default settings for both Add Documents and Full Control, improving workflow.
Better yet, I propose two options:
- Above, where you could change the default settings in general, so you wouldn't need to visit the setting window that lot of users don't even know about.
- In addition, If you could make a group of people (for eg. multiple teams in your own company, or the entire organization) to always have full control as default whenever you open a session, and alternatively, you could set the default permissions for anyone outside of the company for versatility.
Context:
The design team don't deal with clients but only with teams internally, therefore, when designers open a new session, full control to everyone is necessary (as only company employees are included in these sessions).
But when project managers open a session, it would be really beneficial, if they could change their default settings to allow permission automatically for everyone within the company or if they choose to, they could also change default settings for everyone in outside the company.
