With large models it is potentially a very time-consuming process to select items
of interest. Autodesk Navisworks makes this a much simpler task by providing
a range of functions for quickly selecting geometry both interactively and by
searching the model manually and automatically.
Interactive Geometry Selection
In Autodesk Navisworks, there is a concept of an active selection set (the
currently selected items, or the current selection) and saved selections sets.
Selecting and finding items makes them part of the current selection, so you
can hide them or override their colors. At any time, the current selection can
be saved and named for retrieval in later sessions.
Selecting items makes them part of the current selection, so you can hide them
or override their colors.
You can use several methods to interactively select items into the current
selection. You can use the tabs in the Selection Tree, select items directly in
the Scene View with the Select and Select Box tools, and you can select
other items with similar properties to an existing selection using the selection
commands.
NOTE Right-clicking any item in the Selection Tree or Scene View opens a
shortcut menu.
