This was a suggestion from an end user email I received. Current State: Flipping to various pages in a PDF by manually clicking into the page number area of the Navigation Bar and typing in the page number. Suggestion: a keyboard shortcut to jump into the page number area to type in the destination page number. This would…
Create a few custom keyboard shortcuts for your most used tools or commands. Not too many, otherwise its hard to remember all of them. I had problems with overlapping Markups. Therefore I use F1 to hide all markups with a single button, even while using different tools, without anything in the way. After completing the…
I really fancy using checkmarks while working as an easy way to cross off my progress while incorporating comments from my colleageus and it's rather cumbersome having to right click and navigate to the checkmark every time. I'd love a shortcut, and even more so the ability to customize my own shortcut for this.
Hi everyone! Welcome to the October 2024 Monthly Challenge! Last month, we explored how you add your "Seal of Approval" to documents, whether through signatures, stamps, watermarks, or other methods. We saw some great responses and a variety of methods across the community. This month, we’re shifting gears to focus on…
At work, we got a feedback about a bluebeam function. The Find tools + Commands menu is awesome but it is quite time consuming to always get it from the menu. We haven't found the possibility to add it as a button nor use a keyboard shortcut. we should have the ability to call for it as we can call for the search tool with…

Hi, is there a way to add an oval shape callout in Bluebeam? In my industry, we often use oval callouts to identify equipment, but currently, only rectangle, circle, triangle, and hexagon options are available. It would be great to have an oval shape option or the ability to adjust the circle dimensions to create an oval.…

Is there a way to apply multiple digital signatures to a document without having to Save after each signature?
After my last update… When I add a Dimension to a pdf the extension lines are way to long. Sometimes putting them off the edge of the page. I have: set and checked scale checked dim line and text size any ideas….
This is a simple question. When I've 'Checked Out' a document in my BB Studio Project and added mark-ups, does it automatically Save when I 'Check In'? Or should I click save first, and then Check In?
Occasionally, during a session a user will not see the status options needed to set the state. The occurrence is not tied to a specific user or session. This issue has persisted for years, and I am still searching for a solution - aside from additional markings or highlights in the session markups. Anyone else experiencing…
I was hoping to find a way to filter sessions by "My Status", so I can quickly see those I have marked as "reviewing" or "finished", but I do not see that as an option in any of the dropdowns that are visible to me. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks in advance!
Greetings, I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer. Hopefully I can get some help here. Is it possible to overlay and also compare two PDFs? When we only compare the files, we only see the cloud and sometimes it's not easy to tell what is the difference. If I can also overlay those PDFs, I can see the color…
What is the best way to track project issues? I have issues that are emailed to me by my contractor customers and need some way to flag it and remember to follow up on it. I am having too many emails fall through the cracks and are not resolved in a timely manner.
Hey everyone, first time post! So I'm a spec writer and am trying to convert pdfs into Word docs. Which is easy…except when Bluebeam creates the Word doc, all of the paragraph levels are assigned to the same Word styles. As an example, in the attached image all of the paragraphs are the same "List Paragraph" style in Word.…
