Default Viewpoint Options

Two view attributes can be saved with a viewpoint:

You can set a viewpoint to save either attribute by editing the viewpoint. To update changes to overridden material or hide/required, use the Update option on the viewpoints context menu. Be careful, though, as this also updates the point of view as well, which may disrupt any redline information stored with the viewpoint.

By default these attributes are not stored with new saved viewpoints. If you do wish them to be saved by default, then this can be set in the Options Editor.

Default collision settings can also be saved with a viewpoint, including whether collision, gravity, crouching, and third person view are enabled. These settings are only used in a 3D workspace.

You can set a viewpoint to save any of these settings by editing the viewpoint, in the same way as the view attributes.

By default, all of the collision settings are disabled. If you want to save your preferred collision setting defaults, use the Options Editor.

Note: When you modify the default viewpoint settings, your changes do not affect the currently opened Autodesk Navisworks file. They are used as soon as you open a new Autodesk Navisworks file, or start a new Autodesk Navisworks session.
