How do I create a markup shortcut that I created?
Correct. That is the DGL Tool Set. If you add a tool to the My Tools chest, any tool(s) there will be numbered. I believe that's the only way to give a shortcut like command to a custom markup. I know it limits the usefulness in some ways, but I hope that helps.
Could it be this setting keeping you from accessing the hotkeys?
It looks like you have applied some custom properties to an out of the box (OOTB) markup and want to re-use that markup with the setting you have applied. If you right click on that custom markup, near the bottom of that pop up menu you will see "Add to Tool Chest >".
Click that option and select which one you would like to add it to. I suggest choosing "My Tools" so you can build your collection of custom Bluebeam Tools.
Is that what you wanted to accomplish?
Thank you your response.
I have already done that but wanted to assign a shortcut key for that markup. Is that possible?
As far as I know, keyboard shortcuts can only be added to the tools and commands that are already listed in that settings window.
Perhaps someone else knows a way to add custom My Tools there with the Import button.
Thank you for the feedback.
If you move the markup to your My Tools chest, it creates a hotkey for it. You can use the number assigned to the tool as a "shortcut" key.
Edit: I apologize for the late response. I was out of town. I hope this helps though.
Good morning, thank you for the response. When I look in my tool chest, it doesn't have the number like yours. Please see bellow:
How do you activate these tools with the numbers?
The tools that I created and added to my tool set are not numbered, but I made them default the keyboard shortcuts works for them now. You can also reassign the shortcut key if you would like (make sure they are not correctly assigned). Click on Revu-keyboard shortcuts to get the screen bellow.
That is the pop-up window I went to to try assigning shortcuts to "My Tools" after seeing your post. I am still unclear on how you can assign shortcuts to custom tools in this interface.
But it looks like you have figured it out…
I hope this helps.
Add the tool to "My Tools" and then type the number of the tool's place in the set. So, the first tool is 1, second is 2, and so on. Sometimes I don't see the numbers, but the function still persists.
If utilizing the method that @Debora Leal outlined, you'll get the default settings of the markup tool you assigned the shortcut to. If that is adequate for your purposes then so be it. I try to keep common tool shortcuts dedicated to memory, but my markups I change the most throughout a project, I make sure to turn into a custom markup, sort it into a logical (to me) set and then put my favorites in My Tools and just use the hotkeys it assigns.
Just make sure to right-click the tool and change it to Properties Mode if you want to draw the shapes and such yourself. If you want it more like a stamp, then Drawing Mode should be good.
I hope that helped.
That is what I wanted to do, but it didn't work for me. I don't have the numbers next to the customized tools that I created, and number 1, 2, 3 doesn't work. I was not able to reassign a shortcut key for them either.
Hi All, I need to send a share link of the Revised Arch. sheets in my Set to the printer. BB AI chatbot pointed me to Sets/Publish/Combine then select the option to "include only revised sheets". Sadly this option doesn't exist in my Combine window. Can anyone tell me where to find it or if there is another way to create…

I recently build a testing report for my field representatives that includes a javascript for some basic calculations. I wanted the form as easy as possible for my older field reps so I wrote a straightforward javascript that will automatically highlight, make bold, and show the result they are after. This form works…
Besteht die Möglichkeit, wenn ich die Deckenfläche markiere /ausmesse, dass gleichzeitig der Umfang angezeigt wird. Es ist doch erheblich aufweniger, wenn ich zuerst die Deckenfläche markiere und die m2 erhalte und dann nochmals die gleiche Deckenfläche abklicke um den Umfang des Randprofiles zu erhalten. Das könnte man…
How do I export all pdfs into one? I am going in a field visit tomorrow and I am trying to use a revu project in the field.
I have a user that as of this morning is experiencing an issue with typing spaces into any markup text entry field. Text boxes, Callouts, comments etc. The behavior is a bit hard to describe so bare with me. If the preceding character to the typed space is a letter or most symbols then the space does not appear normally…
Just recently I get this dialog box when using File/Open pulldown. I can use the Open From Disk button to get to the local server our files are stored. Does anyone know how this default changed or how to change it back? Thanks!
Why all of sudden are my files loading slow regardless of how I open them and how I change my hardware or rendering settings. I have been using Bluebeam for years with no issues like this until directly after the update. Below is the version I have…any help or insight would be appreciated..
Anyone else having issues with applying a markup filter and the drawings aren't graying out the filtered-out markups? Is that an error or an update to the latest version? I've got my filtered annotation dimmed to 40%
