Locations Page

Use the options on this page to share global Navisworks settings, workspaces, datatools, avatars, clash tests, object animation scripts, and so on, with other users. The Clash Detective feature is available for Autodesk Navisworks Manage users only.

The settings can be shared across an entire project site, or across a specific project group depending on the required level of granularity.

When you run Navisworks for the first time, the settings are picked up from the installation directory. Subsequently, Navisworks examines the current user profile and the all users profile on the local machine, and then checks the settings in the Project Directory and the Site Directory. The files in the Project Directory take precedence.

Project Directory

Click to open the Browse for Folder dialog box, and locate the directory that contains the Navisworks settings specific to a project group.

Site Directory

Click to open the Browse for Folder dialog box, and locate the directory that contains the Navisworks settings standard across the entire project site.
