Control Bars
To display a control bar:
On the View menu, click Control Bars, and click one of the following:
Camera Tilt, Plan Thumbnail, Section Thumbnail, Viewpoints, Selection Tree, Selection Sets, Find
Items, Comments, Find Comments, or Properties.
Alternatively, use the buttons on the Workspace toolbar.
Workspaces
NavisWorks comes with several default workspaces. You can use these workspaces as-is or modify them
in accordance to your requirements.
Workspaces enable you to work in a custom, task-oriented design review environment. Each workspace
contains sets of toolbars and control bars with the tools required to perform a certain job, making it easy
to switch between layouts as necessary. For example, 'file aggregation', 'project review', 'object animation'
and 'Clash Detective' workspaces could be set up, saved and used as appropriate. The workspaces can
also be shared with other users. You could, for example, create separate workspaces for occasional and
'heavy-weight' NavisWorks users, or setup your own corporate standard.
When you first start NavisWorks a default workspace is used. You can choose a different workspace at
any time by clicking View > Workspaces, and then selecting the required workspace from the list.
Alternatively, click on the Workspace toolbar, and click the desired workspace to open it.
To save the current interface layout to a new workspace:
1. Configure your workspace. For example, you can close all toolbars except the Standard, Selection
Tools, Navigation Mode, and Workspace.
2. On the View menu, click Workspaces > Save Workspace.
3. In the Save Current Workspace dialog box, enter a name for the new workspace. You can also
select the name of an existing workspace to overwrite it with your modified configuration.
