Bluebeam Tip: Maximize Efficiency with Custom Profiles in Bluebeam Revu

For professionals who frequently switch between different types of projects or workflows in Bluebeam Revu, utilizing profiles can greatly enhance productivity. Profiles in Bluebeam Revu allow users to save custom interface and tool set configurations, making it easy to switch from one work environment to another without manually adjusting settings each time.

  • Creating a Profile: Begin by customizing your workspace with toolbars, menus, and panels. Once your setup is optimized for a specific task, go to View > Profiles > Save Profile to save this configuration.
  • Naming Your Profile: Give your profile a clear and descriptive name that easily identifies the type of work it's suited for, such as "Structural Review" or "MEP Design."
  • Switching Between Profiles: To switch profiles, simply navigate to View > Profiles and select the desired profile from the list. This instantly adjusts your workspace to the saved settings.
  • Sharing Profiles: If you work within a team, profiles can be exported and shared among colleagues to ensure consistency across projects. To export a profile, go to View > Profiles > Manage Profiles, select the profile, and click "Export." To import a profile, use the "Import" button in the same dialog.
  • Profile Tips: Create profiles for different phases of a project, such as design review, quantity takeoffs, or punch lists. Adjust toolbars and commands to have the most frequently used tools easily accessible for each specific task.

By leveraging the power of profiles, users can seamlessly transition between various tasks, maintaining efficiency and focus.
