Accelerate Display Performance

If your video card meets the Autodesk Navisworks minimum system requirements, you can improve the graphical performance by turning on hardware acceleration and occlusion culling.

Using the hardware acceleration usually gives you better and faster rendering. However, some graphics cards may not function well in this mode in which case switching this option off is recommended.

Occlusion culling can significantly improve performance in situations when much of the model is not visible. For example, when you walk down the corridor of a building, the walls occlude most geometry outside the corridor. Other rooms are only visible through doorways or windows. Turning on occlusion culling dramatically reduces the rendering load in such cases.
