I did a quick search here and I was not able to find that this was asked here. But was BB recently updated to have the "repeat last" command? and if not, is there a plan to add this?
Can you please expand on this a bit more? I don't know of any 'commands' in Bluebeam. If you mean reuse the last tool then that is down in your status bar:
this will allow you to reuse the selected markup tool repeatedly without having to re-select it after each use. You then hit ESC to end using it.
I am using Auto CAD lingo here a bit, I apologize.
For me, the "reuse markup tool" has no effect. Tool stays active regardless.
In AutoCAD, after you ESC from a command, you can reactive last used tool with hitting spacebar. So is there a similar option in BlueBeam. After you ESC from a tool, to have an option/hotkey that will reselect the last used tool.
I understood what you meant by command and agree, sometimes you didn't plan to reuse a markup tool so even if you knew about the ' Reuse Markup Tool' feature that @Duane Gingras mentioned (I didn't), you may want to be able to right-click and have the last tool listed for quick access.
And thanks for the tip Duane.
Alright. I just learned that "reuse markup tool" works only for the markups in the toolbox. not line, text, etc. Those are by default "reusable". Like @Luke Shiras said, an option to select the last select tool. Granted hotkeys are useful, but sometimes, you are using a tool that you do not use that often and option to reselect it quickly (like spacebar in Auto CAD) would go long ways.
👆️This, this is why I started learning shortcuts. Even though my tool bars were easy to navigate, the extra time to move my mouse back and forth can add up after a while, especially on larger monitors.
Ah, i see what you mean. I f you use a tool and then go back to cursor you would like a quick way to go back to that last used tool. Short answer is, No.
However you can do the following. if there are tools that you typically use on a regular basis drag then to you 'my tools section' and then you just press the corresponding number on your keyboard. This is an example of my "My Tools"
The little numbers in the top right of each tool is your short cut. These are the tools i use on a daily basis so i just tap a number between 1 and 14 to select any tool. I also move things around in "My Tools" as needed. My full set in "My Tools" is 32 entries, but i regularly only use the top 6 or 7 spots. Press 3 to add a comments, ESC, press 4 to add comment with leader, ESC… and so on. All my typical tools are within reach of my left had.
Not everyone that uses BlueBeam is a power user. I personally have no problems, but I am thinking about other coworkers that do not use it as often and/or are not BB savvy. Is there a way to elevate this question to BB developers?
Hi, I want to ask here if Bluebeam product support creating symbolic link for the studio session files being stored at C disk. The need arises because session files are taking up a large space on C disk. I am looking for options to shift this data to other drives and make up space.
Hello, I'm new to Bluebeam software and don't use it regularly, so this might be common knowledge. If we add digital signatures to a document in Bluebeam and the document gets updated over time, is there a way to track or link the different versions for future reference? Thank you.
With a PDF file that has a sensitivity label (opened in Revue), is the Microsoft sensitivity label visible in Bluebeam Revue?
Can users with the Basics plan not add or manage their hatch patterns? I was hoping to add more options, but my manage option is greyed out. Can't seem to find a answer to this, so was wondering if this is a recent tool removed from Basics. Thanks!
I would like to know if there is any way that I could navigate a pdf by sorting spaces by space name rather than page label?
I got a new hard drive and changed , to , and started recreating my lost tool chest, but nothing get saved, When I check in, close and open again, I'm on the factory settings
I got a new hard drive and my profile with my personalized tool chest is gone. How can I access it?
Hi Bluebeam. Isn't it possible for you to make a continuous measurement like the one shown? regards Claus
