Hi all, I wanted to ask if it were possible to create custom measurement tools in Bluebeam? specifically a tool that would measure the area and the percentage of an object within a circle? I have drawn a quick diagram which I hope explains what I mean. But from the diagram a tool that will tell me what percentage of the…
It would be great if the standard MS Office keyboard shortcuts (ctrl shift - or ctrl shirt +) worked in Bluebeam.
Hello, it would be very useful if in the Create Page Labels menu there was an option to create page labels with content from a particular header/footer region. Since all my pages are different sizes/orientations, I have to go back through with the "create page labels by region" workflow for each different location to get…
Is it possible to create an offset button (function similar in autocad) to be able to place lines at a distance from a point, for example? For example: When calculating earthworks for a building, we calculate the soil 5m further than the outer perimeter of the building. Now I manually draw lines at 5m distance from each…

Dynamic Fill is an awesome tool, but from time to time I do try to use i on drawings where even though I have an outline shape that appears to be closed, the Paint Bucket tool still bleeds out even at the smallest brush and slowest fill settings. Does anyone have any suggestions or found a fix for this? Using it primarily…
Our IT department has been slowly upgrading our users to Windows 11. A few of our users have been experiencing really bad lag with creating, moving, modifying markups. This happens both in Session and with locally saved files. It seems to only be happening to our users with virtual/cloud computers. Specifically, we use…
Hi, we mainly use Revu 21 to edit pdfs and save in PDF/A format. We need pdf documents in PDF/A-2b format. Is it possible to convert a pdf to pdf/A-2b format? please explain how to do it? thanks Oliver
Here is my issue folks - clicking on a web link in a document does not open in the default browser, but in one of my other installed browsers. This behavior is experienced only with Bluebeam and one Trimble software, the rest of my installed applications obey my default browser setting. Has anyone encountered such issue…
Hi All, I accidentally added a layer at the end of the long list of existing layers. Has anyone found a way to reorder the layer list? I would also like to hide one of the layers I created by default and open it only when I need it. Is this possible? Thank you ahead, Ian
Effectively a transmittal listing the names of the sheets printed in a given PDF print operation. Automatically generated, probably toggled on & off with an additional checkbox option in the print dialog.
I'm trying to create a form that requires both signatures and initials. However, I can't seem to find a way to format the field for just initials. Is there a better way to do this other than using a text box?
I'd like to see a tool where you can magnify part of document/drawing/detail/etc via callout or simple shape on a drawing. See video below for SolidWorks and Apple Photos examples. Option 1 How to add Magnifying Glass or Details view in SolidWorks Drawings Option 2 iPhone 14/14 Pro Max: How to Zoom In or Magnify Part Of A…
I'm quickly trying to help an engineer with an SOW to go to client but my Word settings are not coming through when I convert to Bluebeam pdf. Is there a way to show revision lines but hide text markups?
Has anyone here had issues when dupe/revising a custom profile with custom statuses? I inherited some customized profiles which I still use but whenever I have tried to update them (i.e., add or rename a status), it doesn't work. I save it as under a different name but it basically reverts back to the original. I feel like…
