Hello—I'm investigating automations of bluebeam tool creation. I'm interested in taking a database full of pdfs with shapes and vector images that I want to turn into tools (steel sections and simpson fasteners). What do you power users out there know about this? Thanks! CGPT says this about it: Likely Storage Structure…
A lot of you may know me as the "labs guy" here on community, but I have been working on something new and different and it's launching next week: A new Bluebeam YouTube Series called Future Built! We're excited to use this format to discuss topics like being a working mom, mental health, and breaking into the AEC…
I noticed that when I check in a document and I put a note describing what I've done whist a document is checked out, I never see that note again unless I look for it. Is there a way to have that note added to the Studio Notification I receive via email? My notes are typically less than 3 sentences and it would be Rad if…

Not sure if this is a bug. We are Fire Risk Assessors so are often need to either colour in a wall or change the colour of a door on floor plans. We also have to draw lines to show the length of a certain route. Here's what I've noticed: 1 = The fill colour choices for a Polygon are not the same as the Change Colour…
Cloud and Cloud+ color fills only are changing from 10% to solid. First noticed in a Studio session. When selected, the solid fill reads as 10% in toolbar and properties panel. If bumped up or down, it resets to 10%. The solid fills return after closing, leaving, logging out for all users. Comments exported and imported…
It would be nice to have a tool that would (assuming both the X and Y axises are the same scale) calculate scale from a known area on the set of plans. I have had two sets of schematic drawings come across my desk in the last month alone, that did not have the correct scale and did not have any labeled linear dimensions,…
Hi I’m new to Bluebeam so quite raw, I’ve inherited somebody else’s toolbox, and I’m not allowed to change the items within the toolbox (company policy), so my reason for writing is within my toolbox there are lots of rectangles which I can’t rotate to line up with diagonal lines on my drawing templates i.e. school…
My color PDFs are showing as black and white. The mark ups are in color, but the original document is not. How do I get them to show as color?
This might be a really obvious one but I can't seem to figure out the best way to do this: I frequently mark up drawing sets for estimates wherein there are multiple pass-through trades under my scope. What I want to do is to be able to do takeoffs for multiple trades, giving them each their own layer that represents them,…
Hey guys, my name is sam, fairly new user. I was sent a set of pdf's that are scale protected, so blue beam will not work is there a way to unlock these at my end or do I need to reach out to the engineers to unlock? thanks
Just did the update this morning. Everything went well except I no longer have the Revu icon. It is just looks like a piece of paper with the right, top corner bent over. Is this the new icon or did something not load correctly?
Last night, our Admin team nearly lost their minds. While converting 92 Word documents to PDF, they discovered that the new PDFs were displaying the old versions of the Word documents. Any ideas what caused this and how to prevent or correct the problem if it happens again? They converted perfectly this morning.
