Find and Follow Links
Links are an extremely useful review tool to allow you to access non-graphical
information through the graphical interface of Autodesk Navisworks.
The links converted from the native CAD files, and the links added by Autodesk
Navisworks users are treated as object properties. This means, you can examine
them in the Properties window.
You can also use the Find Items window to search for them.
