Control Model Appearance
You can use the tools on the Render Style panel on the Viewpoint tab to
control how your model is displayed in the Scene View.
You have a choice of one of four interactive lighting modes (Full Lights, Scene
Lights, Head Light, or No Lights), four rendering modes (Full Render,
Shaded, Wireframe, or Hidden Line) and you can individually turn each
of the five primitive types (Surfaces, Lines, Points, Snap Points, and Text)
on and off.
NOTE Render and Lighting modes are not available in a 2D workspace.
Select Render Mode
Rendering shades the scenes geometry using the lighting youve set up, and
the materials and environmental settings (such as background) youve applied.
In Autodesk Navisworks, you can use four render modes to control how the
items are rendered in the Scene View. The spheres below demonstrate the
effect that the render modes have on model appearance. In order from the left,
these are Full Render, Shaded, Wireframe, and Hidden Line.
