Walk Tool
Use Classic Walk Select this check box if you want to switch from the standard Walk tool to the classic Autodesk
Navisworks Walk mode on the navigation bar.
Constrain Walk Angle When this check box is selected, the Walk tool will keep the camera upright while
navigating. If this check box is clear, the tool will allow the camera to roll while navigating (resulting in behavior
almost like the Fly tool).
Use Viewpoint Linear Speed When this check box is selected, the Walk tool will respect the Viewpoint Linear
Speed setting. In this case, the Walk speed slider will act like a multiplier.
When this check box is clear, the Walk tool will work independently of the Viewpoint Linear Speed setting,
using a fixed value set with the slider.
Walk Speed Sets the speed of the Walk tool from 0.1 (very slow) to 10 (very fast).
