Hello - Looking to find an expert who understands scripting and what scripts work best with Bluebeam. Any suggestions?
I want to export Text inside bubble from P&ID PDF to excel format so that I can easily inlist all tags to save time.is there any specific way or by scripting in bluebeam revu software?
I have been trying to create a link between my Bluebeam markups and a corresponding Excel Document/Table. I was curious if there is a way or a JavaScript Code that would allow me to export my markups list and then Bluebeam will update that export when I save it after I have made changes to it. I have used power query in…
Hi There, I have been working on some standard tools and stamps for my firm and I seem to be running into the limits of both tools and stamps. What I want is a tool/stamp (either is fine the functionality is what we need) that has some dynamic fields and some editable text that a user can double click into to edit. What I…
Follow up to this post. Now with a specific example/goal. I need to count/tally instances of all variations of a certain string (regex: W\d{2}X\d{2}). Requesting help with this from an LLM (per reply/suggestion to previous post) yields JS that appears valid but raises errors. // Bluebeam Revu eXtreme Script function…
good day brother & sister bluebeam users, our organization developed a stamp with a javascript prompt for a calculation. as of late, the stamp has been giving an incorrect calculation. any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated. many thanks! kilian.
BalancePages should have a function to allow you to insert your own PDF. InsertPages has this functionality, so it isn't too far out of the realm of possibilities. Use: Making sure documents are always even or odd by slip-sheeting individual PDFs prior to combining. Having the possibility of IF/THEN statement in Bluebeam…
This is my first post, so please forgive me if I misstep! I had a project for a client that was looking to streamline their submittal process. In the past, their method was to complete single lines for lighting control in AutoCAD and print to PDF for contractors to Bid / utilize for construction. Our idea was to further…
Hello all, I want to write a script that refreshes the headers/footers for some documentation. The code below is what I have so far and it formats the footer correctly. The problem is this script cannot delete the existing header to overwrite it, and so it cannot "refresh" the header, only apply it the first time.…
Is there a way to select specifically objects instead of creating Poly Shapes in Revu to delete page content? If there's not, Bluebeam should think about selecting lines in the same way you can Adobe to delete content. This would help me keep text in the middle of a line I may be trying to delete, or vice versa. Only way…

I'm not sure how long ago this changed, but it was pretty recent…. I used to be able to make a legend from my tool counts per page by selecting the counts to be per the "current" page and then at the begining of the document on the cover page I could create a Master Legend with the Total Counts that had ALL the counts from…
Many of my customers organize their Recent Files into Categories. What is the best practice to get this handy piece of user settings across into a new Bluebeam setup? I used Ctrl+K > Admin > Backup / Restore, but the Recent Files content seems to be not in the UserPreferences.xml. Anyone here to tell me where it is and how…
On the Bluebeam website, under "Resources" > "Need an older version of Revu?" there is only v20 and older. This needs new options, like v21.6. Currently the need for this is high, because v21.7 has a highly annoying "new feature" while drawing polylines, areas and contour and area measurement. Something goes visually wrong…
When I open a set of plans in Bluebeam, I get hundreds and many times thousands of items that automatically populate into the Markups List. I try to delete them but it won't allow this to happen. Does anyone know how to get rid of these or stop them from importing? They are mainly random labels, words or drawings…
Hi, I have just updated my bluebeam last weekend and when i am trying to measure, there is now a thick line which blocks the view of my clicking point. i have line weight disabled already. Its just when i am measuring via length, Polylength, area etc. it has slowed up my measuring process as i cant click on the points I am…
Hi All. i have reached out to the support team, but without getting the needed help. They wrote that the problem was due to the drawing being "large", but the problem is not connected to all large drawings. The Drawing is not responding dynamic to zoom, but keeps loding in small bites/fields, making the it slow to work…
When selecting a markup to use such as one that measures area for carpet, while in the process of using the markup tool, the wall lines are totally obliterated by a solid line that is impossible to see through no matter what the opacity setting is of the line. This leaves the markup a matter of guesswork as to where the…
When extracting pages, I currently have to either: Select all pages first, then use Extract [Ctrl+Shift+X], or Go to Extract and change the page range dropdown from Selected to All Pages. Is there a way to skip these steps and have All Pages set as the default so I can extract the full document with a single click?
While I do love the ease of the built in browser functionality in Revu, I'm wondering if there is a way to have a link that opens outside of Revu, in an external browser (ie: chrome or edge), and is connected to markup. I've found several issues with the Revu Browser Youtube links only play at low resolution Several links…
