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…
In the existing Studio Project, I want to reorganize the folders without downloading them to my local drive and then uploading them back to the Studio Project. If I do that, I will lose the history of changes made to the set of drawings. Is there a way to move the folders within the Studio Project?
The desktop version of bluebeam already allows for non-pdf file types to be checked in and out of Bluebeam Studio Folders (for example, and excel spreadsheet). Offering the same feature for the iPad App would allow Superintendents on the field to utilize excel spreadsheets to track equipment rentals and other useful…
I work for an engineering firm where we have users who go on-site for construction monitoring, capturing photos and marking up documents etc. With the use of the Bluebeam Cloud on iOS (iPad). With password complexity requirements, it would make it easier for users to be able to sign in by scanning a QR code from their…

Hi everyone, I'm facing an issue regarding group administration in Bluebeam Project (not session), and I'm hoping someone here might have some insight. I find the group feature in the Permissions and Folder Permissions tabs to be incredibly useful for managing user access. However, I've run into a problem when multiple…
Hi all, I am looking into automating PDF overlays to compare architectural changes. Since there are more than 100 drawings, I am trying to create a hook that triggers when files are updated in the folder, automatically overlaying the PDFs and saving the output to a specified destination.
If you alert someone to a comment in a studio session, they get a notification. The first time they click on the notification, it takes them to the comment with the alert, but if they navigate away, the notification no longer acts as a link, even if you set its status to "unread". Notifications should always act as links.

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…
