Colored Document Tabs
It would be helpful if Revu would allow changing the color of the document tabs. I often work with several files open in engineering field, especially when reviewing markups. The tabs become so small that the document title would be hidden. I would like to do something like this: Set my initial marked-up documents in a red…

Open files Read-Only from Windows Explorer
Let's finally get an open Read-Only option from Windows Explorer and inside Revu. It's long overdue. This is all about courtesy in the workgroup, accessibility and availability. Windows Explorer implies it's not in the cloud and is available to a workgroup. Not needing simultaneous edits, just read-only! Thanks.

View Fit Height for long highway exhibits
I'm working with highway drawings, printing to PDF some long plots, 266" x 36" today. I would like to see a simple View > Fit Height for these really long PDFs. We have a View > Fit Width already, why not the super landscape equivalent? Cheers! Patricio

Detached PDF Tabs Should Open as Full Windows
When detaching a PDF tab in Bluebeam, the new window does not include the full toolbar or markup tools. This makes side-by-side review difficult, especially on dual monitors. It would be very helpful if detached tabs could behave as full windows, similar to Adobe Acrobat. This would significantly improve workflow…

Up through December 16th, the email subject line for all of my incoming Bluebeam invites were formatted with the project file numbers, name of municipality/project, and the submission type.

Anchor points for grouped items
My company's been asked to transition historically CAD based work to BBR to facilitate end user utility. To that end, over the past few years we have created toolsets to mimic our CAD blocks for valves, pumps, vessels, etc. One of the really useful aspects of CAD (and a welcomed addition to BBR) is the ability to snap to a…

Adding Background to Dimension Text
In AutoCAD you are able to add a background to a dimension. It would be great to have this feature in Bluebeam as well. It would be similar to the fill property in the text box command but would be completely inside of the measure command. Currently, I do not know this to be possible in Bluebeam. My current workaround is…

E-Signature - Standard Date Format - APEGA Requirements
Our org uses Bluebeam for most signing projects, and we would like to extend this use to engineers for P.Eng stamping. Currently it doesn't appear that we can modify the date format in an e-signature… Per APEGA standard "Authenticating Professional Work Products" Page 6/30. "The date authentication occurred.

Option to open documents as read-only
We've been having this issue, since forever, of someone opening a document to reference it for work they're doing but they're not the document owner (they didn't create it nor are they responsible for updating it), and it locks out the person updating/replacing the pdf preventing them from making changes or stamping it.…

Please allow one-click download all files in a Studio Session
Hi. It would be very helpful to have a Bluebeam Revu (we use 20 at my company) functionality to be able to download all of the files within a Studio Session with one or two clicks as opposed to having to download all files individually. This would save time, especially for Sessions with a large number of files (100+ is…
