Offset Tool Grayed Out

I was happily using the new Offset tool (shortcut 'O') a few weeks ago. I went to use it again today and it seems to be grayed out. Whether I have a markup selected or not, the tool does not seem to work.

Tried restarting system, no luck. Was this feature disabled in the latest update? I'm running 21.9, Core Subscription.

Any thoughts?

Interested in the response and following…

I am running 21.9 Complete and can't even find the Offset tool and 'O' shortcut doesn't do anything.

Where is the tool even located? I don't see it in the Tools dropdown, I have tried various profiles right click and toolbars, but can't locate it.

I can find it Commands in Keyboard Shortcuts, but as mentioned above, it doesn't do anything.

The tool is actually found in the Edit dropdown, above offset, below paste-in-place.

Offset is a function in the Bluebeam Max Beta, it shouldn't appear in 21.9 unless you've done the secret handshake (signed up for the beta!). Try logging out and logging back in, since the functionality is tied to your Bluebeam ID.

Interesting! I don't recall signing up for any betas. I could use it in 21.8, but not anymore in 21.9. Not a big deal for me, just curious why it was no longer working.

Agree that I never signed up for a BETA - the tool just showed up, apparently when I upgraded to v21.8. Someone else noticed it and we have been using it since. Now I have people who did the v21.9 upgrade telling me that it is greyed out. PLEASE bring it back - this was a long hoped-for ability in BBR.

I agree 100%. Would love to have this feature back in 21.9!

Batch Hyperlink a range of pages
Is there a way to batch hyperlink a range of pages instead of the entire document? I have a 325 page document. Within that document are sets. There is an overall page with area references to that set. That set is page 58-78. I know I could pull the set out and do it, then reinsert. Just wondering if there was an easier way.
