The Navisworks User Interface

The Navisworks user interface contains a number of traditional Windows elements, such as the application menu, Quick Access toolbar, ribbon, dockable windows, dialog boxes and context menus in which you complete tasks.

Parts of the Interface

This section briefly describes the main components of the standard Navisworks interface.

The interface is intuitive and easy to learn and use. You can adjust the application interface to match the way you work. For example, you can hide docking windows that you rarely use, so they do not clutter the interface. You can add and remove buttons from the ribbon and the Quick Access toolbar. You can also apply a different theme to the standard interface.
