We use MassDOT, RIDOT and other standardized status conditions, so we have something like 20 different status options for markup items. Bluebeam allows multiple statuses to be added to any one comment, and tracks the time/date/user the status changes. Turning on 'Filter List' allows us to focus on certain statuses, but…
The current method for distributing shared Tool Sets is inefficient, as it necessitates manual user intervention following each update; users must be individually notified and then import the updated sets themselves. A more robust solution would involve hosting Tool Sets in a centralised repository that Revu can poll or…
It would be beneficial to be able to add locks to the tool chest so that when you make a change, it does not automatically save. I have created custom tool chest for our company, so everyone just imports the tool chest into their system, and it does not come with a lock using that method.
It would be nice that I could import name of the space or other info to measurement table when I create a bunch of measurements from spaces.
Here's an idea - use the features you already have in the most common way I see people staple PDFs to create a single file. Currently, you can only select "Use file name as page label" if you combine PDFs inside of Bluebeam. If you use the stapler, that option does not exist. The result - combined PDF sets uploaded to a…
Currently, when you hover over the maximize button you don't see the snap layouts. It would be nice if the maximize button would be programmed so that the snap feature could be used in Windows 11.
As the title suggest, it would be nice and almost necessary to include leaders in the default ARC tool rather than having to create a polyline, convert to arc, drag grips, etc, to simulate this.
If I have markups selected. I would like to add to the selection using the "shift + hold click and drag" method to selecting multiple additional markups; however, when I do this, it unselects all of the previously selected markups and only selects the newly drag-selected elements. An option such as this to ADD to the…
Is there a way to build a tool that does offsets of polygons, lines, polylines, etc.? Not the multiply tool but take a square, for example, and offset/scale it smaller/larger by a specified distance.
I know this might seem like a slightly Niche idea, however, when marking up a drawing using the perimeter tool - converting lines to arcs is slightly time consuming in my opinion. An alternative method of drawing curves would be to create multiple control points forming the curve - once again quite time consuming. My Idea…

Resolved: Delete existing version and install old version. Question is in the title. I use the tool chest for my job, I make/edit/modify maybe 50-100 markups a day and whatever was done to the tool chest has ruined its functionality. A few examples: Double click to edit name is now extremely inconsistent. The markups are…
Has anyone experienced this issue after updating to version 21.6? It doesn’t happen every time, but occasionally I get a popup that prevents Bluebeam from opening. When this occurs, I’m unable to launch the application at all. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this and found a solution.
There should be a way to add layers in a pdf on blue beam studio to have to set them all up sheet by sheet then upload them is very time consuming each time a new sheet is added or if someone else adds sheet
I have recently been upgraded to Revu 21 and I remember my tools having custom properties applied for certain tools. Like attaching cost codes to specific tool chest items. I am not seeing the custom fields in the properties window now. Where did it move to?
I've run an overlay on an 88-page project with lots of changes. When trying to print a physical copy, it gets hung up. Even printing in batches is slow because several pages lead to virtual freezing. Are there any tips on how to improve/speed up the printing process? I've flattened and reduced file size, but that has had…
Since it looks like there is no way to unflatten a form field I am wondering if there is a way to lock one. So far I am not able to get it to work. Thanks
I have the Revu Complete plan. Revu is largest user of memory on my system. Right now I have 4 plans open and my memory usage is at 2,486.6 MB I seem to hover around 2,000 MB. Could there be a setting I need to change which will reduce this usage? I have some lagging in other programs. I had attemped to use Studio once to…
Hello y'all ! Is there someon who know how to export coordinate of each control point? (Polyline, not polylength measurement) Thank you ! :-D
I frequently copy excerpts from a PDF using the 'Snapshot' tool ('G' keyboard shortcut) and paste them into emails and chat (MS Outlook & Teams). I love that it can retain vector data and have customized resolution. However, I ran into an issue trying to copy the full page. Even with a basic, unlocked, 8.5x11 page with…
Is there some reason why OCR works on some text in a drawing file and not other text? It looks to be the same font as other text on the drawing that OCR was successful in making searchable. Sorry I am unable to include a snip due to IP. Can anyone share their OCR settings? I've been using Bluebeam for years and still have…
