Bluebeam for iPad - Mark on a drawing with a note ”speech bubble”

Emil Axelsson

In other PDF programs, you can add a note (like a speech bubble) by long-pressing with your finger at the desired location. I don’t see this option in Bluebeam; it would be a welcome addition.

Thanks for the suggestion, @Emil Axelsson. A compact Note markup is on our roadmap as part of bringing mobile and web to the same capabilities as Revu for iPad. We don’t have a release date to share yet.

Today, there are two workarounds:

Add a text markup. This displays text directly on the drawing in a box. Customize the font, fill, and border colors to give it more of a speech-bubble appearance.
Add a comment to any markup. The comment stays attached to that markup, so you can view it when you tap it without displaying the text directly on the drawing.

Your long-press suggestion also fits our goal of making it quicker to capture an observation right where it applies.

Thanks for the reply.

I look forward to the feature being implemented in the near future.
