The Scripter Tree View

The Scripter tree view contains all scripts available in your Autodesk Navisworks file in a hierarchical list view.

Use it to create and manage animation scripts.

Note: Although you can organize the scripts into folders, this has no effect on the way scripts are executed in Autodesk Navisworks.

Hierarchical List

You can use the Scripter tree view to create and manage your scripts.

To work with an item in the tree view, you must first select it.

Selecting a script in the tree view displays the associated events, actions and properties.

You can quickly copy and move items in the tree view by dragging them. To do this, click the item you want to copy or move, hold down the right mouse button, and drag the item to the desired location. When the mouse pointer changes to an arrow, release the mouse button to display a context menu. Click Copy Here or Move Here, as appropriate.

Context Menu

You can display a context menu for any item in the tree by right-clicking an item. The following commands are available on the context menu whenever they are applicable:

Command	Purpose
Add New Script	Adds a new script to the tree view.
Add New Folder	Adds a folder to the tree view. Folders can hold scripts and other folders.
Rename Item	Enables you to rename the currently selected item in the tree view.
