How can i take-off materials quicker using blue beam. I normally see autocad PDF's. Ive tried exporting the comments but i would need to build a formula. Very time consuming.
It's pretty simple. It seems pretty intuitive. There should be a field under properties that displays the enclosed area of the selected polygon. If the scale is set, that field should display the scaled area of the polygon. We shouldn't have to retrace existing polygons to calculate area. Please, and thank you. A value-add…
Het everyone… I'm on here trying to find out what to do… So, I have an issue, when I have everything set up already to go, I go to the bottom corner of the page to set the scale of the page & after that I grab my line off the "My Tools" to get started & when I do that the entire page turns blue… usually it's a light…
As a GC estimator, It would be incredibly helpful to have a linear and count takeoff tool that allows users to input both width and depth, and then automatically calculates volume. This would eliminate the need to rely on the accuracy of architect drawn widths when using the volume measurement tool.
Please add the ability to measure the length of a sloped curve to the perimeter tool. I am consistently measuring guardrail lengths along curved staircases and have to manually calculate the total length of the guardrail. On straight staircases and slopes I am able to use the Length tool to accurately perform my takeoffs.

I want to export Text inside bubble from P&ID PDF to excel format so that I can easily inlist all tags to save time.is there any specific way or by scripting in bluebeam revu software?
Hi there, we have recently subscribed to Bluebeam and we cannot seem to use Markup mode or add anything to a Markup list when doing measurements and takeoffs. I thought it was due to the PDF being protected in some way and have tried all tips I have come across to unprotect it but cannot. Is there any way to work around…
Other mark ups are able to be selected and aligned. The same functionality should be available for count tools for cleaner organization of these mark up tools.

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…
