Hi everyone! 👋 I'm a product designer at Bluebeam, and I’m currently working on Tool Set syncing across devices in Revu. As part of this, we’re exploring how profiles affect tool set visibility. We’d love your input! Can you take a second to answer this one-question poll? Thanks, Skylar
I would love for profile changes to be saved automatically or at least have a shortcut key to save Profile. Currently, we have to manually save any updates to the profile, which is easy to forget. Ideally, the system could either auto-save changes or prompt the user with a pop-up when unsaved changes are detected, offering…
I'm trying to share a profile with a colleague but the profile won't upload to his machine without my drawing. the profile used to share without the drawing but now it won't load without the drawing? Any ideas on how I can remedy this
Hello everyone! I'm a BIM manager at my architecture firm, and we're currently facing some challenges with Bluebeam sessions and assigning statuses. Each time I create a new document, I have to set the statuses again, which is quite frustrating. I noticed that when I try to save the statuses to a Bluebeam profile, the…
I have a profile that I have exported. When I try to import it to another computer, the file loads, but not the profiles. I've tried deleting the other profiles (although they keep appearing again even though they have been deleted). And just importing this profile. The profile works on my computer but when I try to upload…
Please turn status settings into an importable files like tool chests/btx files or hatch patterns/bhx files. It will make things easier when you have a user that prefers their own profile instead of the company provided profile. Currently, if the company's default statuses change, the user will need to load a new profile…
Did you know that double-clicking a Bluebeam Revu Profile (.bpx file) automatically opens Revu and imports the profile for you? This is the quickest and easiest way to have a User import a Profile. It is a very low impact for our non-technical friends and co-workers. 😅 It is much better than explaining how to click the…
I recently discovered how easy it is to export/import profiles (yay!) but, realized that this does not carry over everything. For example, our typical default markup is red, but, we want to provide another Profile where the defaults are green. When trying to set this up, the color override will change the default color to…
Hello, I would like to darken my grid so I can see it better. I just updated to Bluebeam 21 and I don't know if it's on my end or not because we just got new laptops also but in Bluebeam 20 when I drew lines and had the grid up I could see the dots clear as day fully zoomed in but now I only can see them if I zoom out to a…

how do I link my excel spreadsheet to bluebeam for takeoffs
What is the difference with spaces and places?
This morning, I read the latest tip and trick post with custom statuses. I edited a status, and then I created a filter which dimed out the markup once it was set. My question is, Is there a way to save a predefined view of the markups list for when I am going through revise and resubmit drawings?
Is there a way to reorganize form fields in Bluebeam Revu so they follow the correct tab order when filling out a form? Right now, whenever I add a new field, it gets added to the bottom of the list in the Forms panel. For example, if I originally create fields "Text 1" and "Text 3", then go back and add "Text 2" between…
I have one user, in one PDF, when he click on the screen, the page advances. He's unable to do markups because the page keeps advancing. I've never seen the behavior and we can't replicate it. It doesn't happen to other PDFs in the same sessions and reoccurs if Bluebeam is closed and reopened.
When this happens, I can't move a directory with that file. This reddit post solved it for me. You just need to disable the recent file list in Revu. But I would like to use the recent file list feature someday, now that I have to turn it off. Please fix this Bluebeam. Thanks.…
Ok. So I have decided to throw in the towel and look for some help. Towards the end of the year I made a form in Word and then made it fillable through Bluebeam's "Automatically Create Form Fields" in Tools (I believe as it's been a good while). Both samples attached. Since then I have been doing other things, have had…
I'm currently working on customizing the engineering review stamp from the custom libraries, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to edit it without disabling the pop-up feature that appears when placing the stamp. Ideally, I want the pop-up to remain active so that the reviewer can fill out the required fields…
Hi all, We recently experienced a technical issue that caused users to have trouble accessing Bluebeam.com domains. The problem has been fixed, but it may take a little while for the fix to fully take effect everywhere due to how internet systems store temporary information. Thank you for your patience as everything…
Good morning, I logged a ticket with support but no response yet. I cleared the registry by doing a complete uninstall of all previous versions and used the Bluebeam Cleaner Utility (but that only goes back to 21.0.3. I also ran the latest download as an administrator yet the only thing that installs is OCR and when it…
