How do I save a 3d model tree with just the columns that I choose? I have tried saving as a new view and then saving the pdf but when I open the pdf again the 3d model tree has reset to its defaults. I would like to send the pdf out to my team and clients so that they are able to just open without the need to set anything…
Is there a way to create a 3D drawing from scratch? Basically would be similar to a CAD drawing, I suppose.
It would be great when you export a 3D PDF from Revit, that the colors that appear on the Revit window match what the colors are in the 3D PDF. Currently, exports from Revit only take their native material colors and overrides in the 3D viewport do not transfer. Frequently, colors are altered for emphasis and changing the…

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…
