Area Markup Preview Outline - Blocking view of PDF
In Revu 21.8, when drawing an area markup, the settings for line opacity and thickness are previewed when conducting the mark up. This is blocking the view of the outline of the shape being measured. See the example below from Version 21.8: In previous versions, the line was very thin, blue, and allowed the user to see…

Tool Chest Search/Filter
I think, especially for those who have robust Tool Chests saved, it would be very beneficial to have a search bar at the bottom or top to filter down the tools. We are a steel company with lots of W, HSS, C, L etc. measurements saved. Being able to search W12, for example, and see all the relevant members come up to…

Improvement of IFC-import in Bluebeam Revu 21
We (Stam + De Koning, part of Volkerwessels) are exploring if Bluebeam Revu 21 is suitable for implementing 5D-BIM within our workflow of calculating construction projects. The main requirement is to substract reliable BIM-data based on IFC (OpenBIM). Based on my previous contact with the Technical Support Team (Adam…

Mark-Up Grouping
Revert mark-up grouping back to totalling for the whole group instead of showing the quantity of the first markup of the group.

Scaling markups with page size changes
Would be very helpful to have an option to scale the markups when adjusting page size through page setup options. Normal markups would scale size and position, whereas things like sequences and counts would simply scale position.

Revert Polygon/line Shift Functionality
Polygon, polyline, cloud, and their sketch/measurement variants used to be able to continuously draw angled lines at 45° increments when holding down Shift, but recently it has changed such that Shift has to be released and pressed again for each segment of the shape. This behavior is significantly more tedious than the…

Panning Across PDFs Control
Hello - I am suggesting a feature that would help when navigating across multiple monitors (or multiple pdfs i guess) when you have pdfs either split and dragged off of the main bluebeam "home base", or just pdfs opened separately and some what on top of each other. Currently on windows 11 and bluebeam version 21.9, this…

Compass Feature for Angle Measurements
Could there be a 0° - 360° compass feature to provide angle measurements? Looking for a tool to identify pipe angles that are entering/exiting manhole structures on drawings. Currently using a secondary software that has a 'compass tool' but would like if Bluebeam could incorporate a similar tool.

Duplicate to default
The new 'Duplicate as' feature in Max begs for one little thing more. Now we can duplicate or convert a line into a Length measurement including all visual properties corresponding to what has been set via 'Set as Default'. Very handy! The major thing missing there is the Subject. Actually this should also be a setting in…

Multiple takeoffs with one measure
It would be great if Bluebeam had a feature that allows you to create multiple takeoffs from one measure. For example I could create rectangular room measure and then I could apply multiple different tools from tool chest to that one measure. You could for example create measure from room and just apply different tools…

Measure Slope from Horizontal
As a civil engineer, I often have to measure the slope of things, could be in a profile or in a section, but the only angle measurement is a standard angle that gives results in degrees. We need to measure the slope of a pipe in either percent (e.g. 25%) or run/rise (e.g. 4:1). As best I can tell, that's currently not…

Adjust the length of the lines at the end of a length measurement
Is it possible to adjust the length of the lines at the end of a length measurement? I think this was possible in previous versions, but I can't find it anymore. See also the images below.

Document Comparison
How do I compare worded documents? I believe my scale is off and it's highlighting the entire document but I'm not sure.

Font size since latest update
Hi all We are relatively new to Bluebeam but use it every day in our work, it's a great tool that has helped us immensely since we started using it. However, we recently updated to the latest version and since then we are having a bit of trouble, we have contacted technical support and they have given us a couple of…
