Locations Page
Use the options on this page to share global Autodesk Navisworks settings,
workspaces, datatools, avatars, Clash Detective rules, Presenter archives, custom
Clash Detective tests, object animation scripts, and so on, with other users.
The settings can be shared across an entire project site, or across a specific
project group depending on the required level of granularity.
When you run Autodesk Navisworks for the first time, the settings are picked
up from the installation directory. Subsequently, Autodesk Navisworks
examines the current user profile and the all users profile on the local machine,
and then checks the settings in the Project Directory and the Site
Directory. The files in the Project Directory take precedence.
Project Directory Click
to open the Browse for Folder dialog box, and
locate the directory that contains the Autodesk Navisworks settings specific
to a project group.
Site Directory Click
to open the Browse for Folder dialog box, and
locate the directory that contains the Autodesk Navisworks settings standard
across the entire project site.
