Bluebeam Max AI Security Feedback: Concerns About Claude Desktop and Request for Web-Based / M365
Hi Bluebeam team, I’m a long‑time Bluebeam user (Revu 21.9) and currently on a Bluebeam Max trial, but I’m unable to adopt the AI‑enabled features in my organisation because of the security and compliance implications of the Claude Desktop app requirement. For many construction and project‑based businesses, installing a…

Automatic Line Jumps
Many technical drawings have line jumps and depending on the discipline this is usually shown with a hump (as in electrical) or a gap (in process). It would be nice if the polyline tool included automatic line jumps or a there were at dedicated line jump stamp tool that would allow the user to use their selected line jump…

Ability to Disable Webtabs
I am currently running BB Revu v21.9, with BB Engine 21.9.0.16288, and I am looking to disable WebTabs. I have already set links to open in external browsers, but they still sometimes open from a mis-click or something of that sort. This isn't a feature that I use, so I would prefer to disable/remove them entirely.…

Add 'Pin to File Access' to PDF-tab right-click menu
Add an option to the right-click context menu on PDF tabs to 'Pin to File Access'.* Currently, you have to find the desired PDF in the Recents list. The desired PDF may be buried down the list, depending on how many files were opened after it was. It may be difficult to be certain of the correct file, if filenames are…

Revert Polygon/line Shift Functionality
Polygon, polyline, cloud, and their sketch/measurement variants used to be able to continuously draw angled lines at 45° increments when holding down Shift, but recently it has changed such that Shift has to be released and pressed again for each segment of the shape. This behavior is significantly more tedious than the…

Bluebeam Community - Find User Comments
I see there are a couple of places to quickly find my user posts in Bluebeam Community; is there a way to quickly find posts I've commented on?

Drag and drop insert pages
It drives me a little crazy each time I drag and drop pages into the sidebar and get a dialog box asking me where I want to put them. Default behavior should be like Acrobat, which just puts the pages where you dropped them. The dialog should be an option.

Sharable Groups
We are working on standardizing how we use Bluebeam with Project and Session it would be extremely helpful if you could export/import groups to users that way you could have one master list that is shareable with teams. This would greatly enhance usability and streamline onboarding, setting up projects and session and user…

Option to open pdfs in new instance of Revu by default
Can you please add an option to, by default, open pdfs as new instances of Revu instead of as tabs in a single instance? This would enable a more streamlined workflow that I've become familiar with from using other applications combined with MS Windows' built-in windows management system. Note: I'm aware of the article at…

Arrow Head Style Editor
Consider adding an arrow head style editor similar to the line style editor and hatch editor. I would like to create custom arrow heads to differentiate between different framing types on markups for coordination.

Create dynamic page-numbering stamp for drawings
Please see below screenshot of the stamp showing what I intend to create. When the stamp is selected to 'Appy to all', the page number will be updated on each page automatically.

Align top to bottom
In creating any Bluebeam .pdf, I use the alignment tool a lot. However, there is no tool to align the bottom of an item to the top of another (or vice-versa). I need this when I am using a text box and shape. I would like to use if for pictures, too. I used to use this function on other programs and it speeds things up and…

Allow status changes to checked out documents
What I'd love my workflow to be: I create a Project, upload my PDFs & miscellaneous documents, check out my PDF to a session. My engineer redlines the document in the session. I pick up the redlines & change the status of his markups to "Accepted" or whatever. Then he backchecks me & changes the status to "Completed" or…

Run OCR as a background process
Please for the sake of everyone's sanity run OCR as a background process. Locking up Bluebeam entirely for this is absurd.

Change Callout Leader Thickness Without Adding a Text Box
I frequently use callouts, but sometimes I want the callout to have a leader line without enclosing the text in a box. Currently, if the line thickness is set to 0.00 pt, the text appears by itself with a 1.00 pt leader line. However, if I adjust the line thickness, a box automatically appears around the text. Is there a…
