I would love BB studio to reconnect automatically. I am sick of the pop ups and barriers to keep working when I have to tell it to reconnect to the BB studio. Anyone have a solution?
Do you know why it's disconnecting?
Are you connected by wi-fi or a hardline?
BB loses connection every time I log off, un-dock etc. I wouldn't care as much but just about every action that happens in BB with a progress bar prevents you from doing anything else in the program. I don't need to see the status, I'm trying to work on other things while BB connects.
I would both like Bluebeam to more aggressively attempt automatic reconnects and to also make it much more obvious in the UI when disconnected and working offline. I found some good examples of indicators at https://ux.stackexchange.com/a/89705/162139
The reason for this is confusion I've observed with some mechanics and electricians on my team. We use Bluebeam so that we can all have the latest schematic redline markups. I've noticed they normally have the Bookmarks pane visible and not the Studio pane. Since there is literally nothing in the UI telling them they're working offline, they can be working offline for days before noticing a schematic discrepancy compared with someone else's computer, and only then do they notice they've been working offline.
The existing popup seems reasonable, but in my experience at least 80% of users ignore every popup from every application and click whichever button they happen to mouse over first.
Yes, that is also an issue I have seen. Bluebeam used to be cutting edge, it has fallen off with minimal improvements over the last 5 years. We also want a less secure version of studio sessions where multiple users can edit each others markups. Asked for that 7-8 years ago…crickets.
It occurs to me that if Bluebeam can't/won't implement auto-reconnect functionality, then at the very least give us an option to prohibit working offline. It's caused enough problems that I'd rather users couldn't see the PDFs at all during an actual extended internet outage. That seems like it'd be less of a problem than the silently-going-offline issue.
Recently, when drawing lines, polylines, the linework on screen is extremely thick. Does not match the default line thickness, just really thick, rasterized lines. Then when the command/lines is finished, the line changes down to the correct line width. Is there a setting to fix this glitch?
Hello all, I've been searching around trying to figure out if this was possible but have had no success. I'm wondering if it's possible to take 2 or more exhibits and combine them along the matchlines 'WITHOUT' snapshot. Snapshot essentially turns it into an image. My intent is to retain the attributes of the original .pdf…
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…
I have installed Bluebeam on a new laptop. Trying to read pdf files is not happening. Thumbnails show up but main window is either gibberish or blank. Have shutdown and then restarted and deinstalled and reinstalled to no effect. Repeated attempts to access Bluebeam result in laptop freezing and need to hard shutdown to…
Hi all, I have many tools showing as disabled & can't do my take offs. This includeds my tools in my tool chests. Any suggestions before I cry?
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've created a dynamic fill of an area on a PDF, and am unable to delete it; even using the Dynamic Fill option to "Clear All", "Clear Fill". How can I delete/erase this dynamic fill?
When I add digital signatures, the window doesn't close after I'm done. It doesn't freeze. I cannot change locations on the document. It will stay open and let me repeat the exact process but never closes. I have to go to Task Manager and close Revu. Any thoughts? Thanks,
I recently upgraded my bluebeam from Core to complete. now my interface is on view mode, i have tried to comeback to markup mode but can not fine the markup mode please i need assistance.
