an input file into the NWC

format in the background, and
places it into the specified dir-
ectory. You must provide the
full file paths within quotation
marks. For example,
“C:\temp\a.dwg"
Autodesk Navisworks converts
an input file into the NWD
[outputfile.nwd] [input file]-nwd
format in the background, and
places it into the specified dir-
ectory. You must provide the
full file paths within quotation
marks. For example,
“C:\temp\b.dwg"
Starts Autodesk Navisworks,
and imports the global op-
[filename.xml]-options
tions from the specified global
options file. You must provide
the full file path within quota-
tion marks. For example,

tions.xml"
Registers roamer.exe with
COM.
-regserver
The syntax for using command line switches is:
“drive:pathname\roamer.exe” [switches] [“file1”] [“file2”] [“fileN”], where [switches] are the valid
command line switches in any order, and [file1]...[fileN] are the files to be loaded and appended together, if
required. You must provide the full file paths within quotation marks.
For example, the following entry starts the program from a folder named Autodesk Navisworks in Russian language,
loads the global options file options.xml, and creates a log file log.txt.
"C:\Autodesk Navisworks\roamer.exe" -options "C:\temp\options.xml" -lang ru-ru -log
"C:\temp\file.log"
To start the program with a command line switch
1 Right-click the program icon on the Windows desktop. Click Properties.
2 In the Autodesk Navisworks Properties dialog box, Shortcut tab, in the Target box, edit the parameters for
the switch using the following syntax:
“drive:pathname\roamer.exe” [switches] [“file”] [“file2”] [“fileN”], where [switches] are the valid
command line switches in any order, and [file1]...[fileN] are the files to be loaded and appended together,
if required. You must provide the full file paths within quotation marks.
