Default Viewpoint Options
Two view attributes can be saved with a viewpoint:
■ Hide/Required - whether items are hidden or required.
■ Override Materials - the color and transparency of items.
You can set a viewpoint to save either attribute by
editing the viewpoint. To update changes to overridden
material or hide/required, use the Update option on the viewpoints shortcut menu. Be careful, though, as this
also updates the point of view as well, which may disrupt any redline information stored with the viewpoint.
By default these attributes are not stored with new saved viewpoints. If you do wish them to be saved by default,
then this can be set in the Options Editor.
Default collision settings can also be saved with a viewpoint, including whether collision, gravity, crouching,
and third person view are enabled.
You can set a viewpoint to save any of these settings by editing the viewpoint, in the same way as the view
attributes.
By default, all of the collision settings are disabled. If you want to save your preferred collision setting defaults,
use the Options Editor.
NOTE When you modify the default viewpoint settings, your changes do not affect the currently opened Autodesk
Navisworks file. They are used as soon as you open a new Autodesk Navisworks file, or start a new Autodesk Navisworks
session.
To set the default view attributes
1 Click Tools ➤ Global Options.
