We’re researching how location-aware PDFs could support workflows such as site planning, utilities, field verification, coordination, and plan review. We’re also exploring future opportunities to bring GIS and location context into Bluebeam’s mobile applications—helping teams connect field observations, photos, markups,…

Join Polyline or Perimeter measurements
Polyline and perimeter measurements have great editing options including adding/removing control points, splitting at control points and resuming measurements. The ability to merge counts is another great feature of review. My suggestion is to add the ability to merge polylines or perimeter measurements. Working in the…

Fixing the Auto-Complete List 10 label cap
Hi, The Auto-Complete List 10 label cap has been an issue since the 21.10 update. Would it be possible to remove the 10 input limiter. The solution to manually add the list of commonly used labels isnt a valid solution due to every new project being different. We have had to roll back to the 21.9 version due to this issue…

Bluebeam auto grouping of different counted items
I had a number of instances where I would do counts on say fire doors and separate count common doors single separate common doors double and later find that Bluebeam has added them all together as 1 type. Seems to be when using the same shape and colour for the count. This could be expensive exercise if not picked up over…

Placing images along a polyline
Hello all, I am often doing traffic sign plans for our construction sites, that we need to submit to authorities for approval. Therefore, we're currently using a software that's not a customer-friendly as Bluebeam, so I thought, maybe I can create an extra profile, where all the traffic signs (in my case the German ones)…

Bidirectional Excel/CSV Integration – Import & Update Markup Metadata
Hi Bluebeam Team, I am writing to suggest a feature that would significantly enhance the workflow for users handling large-scale projects: the ability to import markup data from Excel/CSV back into Bluebeam to update existing properties. Currently, in my industry, we use Bluebeam to assign unique IDs and metadata to…

Custom Columns continue to be an issue
My team continues to struggle with the bugs involving Custom Columns in the Markups List. Our ongoing issues include missing Custom Columns every time we open Bluebeam Revu. We have to re-import an XML file that contains these Custom Columns every time we use Revu. In addition, we have had several instances of Custom…

Allow an Area Measurement to be "Split"
There are time when we have a large area measurement that only part of it gets changed. Instead of deleting and re-drawing the now two separate shapes, it'd be nice to be able to split the measurement and then make the necessary changes to each one. If anyone is familiar with Rhinoceros 3D, it has this ability. I'd try to…

Split an area markup
Maybe this is already a function, and I am just unaware of it but I've looked and looked and could not find anything about it. Similar to the Polygon Cutout tool and the split line, I'm curious as to why splitting an area between two points is not an option? There's been many instances where this would've saved me quite…

Search Tool -- Improvements -- Custom Page Range Search
I would like to request an update to the Search tool within Bluebeam to allow a custom range. Disclaimer There is a similar post here: Revu - Search Feature Improvement - Bluebeam Community And another (thanks @AnthonyLara): Page Range Search I rely heavily on the Bookmarks tab. Many times, I review contract documents or…

Preserve Properties During Offset
It would be helpful if, whenever I offset a perimeter measurement or line, the new line would retain the same properties (subject, custom column values, etc.) as the original line it was offset from.

Area Markup Preview Outline - Blocking view of PDF
In Revu 21.8, when drawing an area markup, the settings for line opacity and thickness are previewed when conducting the mark up. This is blocking the view of the outline of the shape being measured. See the example below from Version 21.8: In previous versions, the line was very thin, blue, and allowed the user to see…
