3DS Page

Use this page to adjust the options for the 3DS file reader.

Convert Hidden

Select this check box if you want Autodesk Navisworks to convert hidden entities in 3DS files. They are automatically marked as hidden by Autodesk Navisworks.

When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores hidden items.

Bitmap File Search Paths

The paths of texture map files are not stored with the texture maps in the model. Enter the required paths into this box, separating them with semi-columns.

Default Units

Specifies the type of units Autodesk Navisworks uses when opening 3DS files.

Tip: If the chosen units type turns out to be wrong, you can rescale the model by using the Units and Transform option. (Right-click in the Scene View, and click Units and Transform on the context menu.)
