Load Display Sets Select this check box if you want Autodesk Navisworks to read associated Display Set DST
files with the DRI file.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores Display Set DST files.
Input Files Selects the input file type.
Select from the following options:
■ DGN Files - to convert the original DGN files.
■ NWC Files - to open the NWC cache versions of the files.
This option is useful if you routinely perform a batch conversion of the DGN files into NWC files, and would
like to open the NWC files when reading a DRI file.

Riegl Page
Use this page to adjust the options for the Riegl Scan file reader.
Use Point Color Values Select this check box to extract color values from the input file.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores color values.
Use Point Intensity Values Select this check box to extract intensity values from the input file.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores intensity values.
Triangulate Point Data Select this check box to extract triangles from the input file.
Selecting this check box slows down the speed of file conversion.
Apply Scanner Transformation Select this check box to display the image in local coordinates relative to the
scanner.
Clear this check box to display the image in global coordinates. Use this option when the file contains more
than one frame.

RVM Page
Use this page to adjust the options for the RVM file reader.
Faceting Factor Enter the required value to control the level of faceting that takes place.
The faceting factor must be greater or equal to 0, where 0 results in the faceting factor being turned off. The
default value is 1. When you double the value, you get twice the number of facets. When you halve the value
you get half as many facets. Larger faceting factors result in more polygons to a model and larger Autodesk
Navisworks files.
Max Facet Deviation This setting controls the greatest distance between the edge of a facet and the actual
geometry.
If this distance is greater than the Max Facet Deviation value, Autodesk Navisworks adds more facets.
If the Max Facet Deviation is set to 0, then this function is ignored.
Convert Attributes Select this check box to convert attribute files. All files located by the file reader are considered
in the same order they were found. Attributes are matched to elements in the scene by name. Any attributes
that were not found are counted, and the number reported in the scene statistics.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores attribute files.
Search All Attribute Files Controls the way the file reader locates attribute files. The file extensions are specified
in the Attribute File Extensions box.
