Navisworks Features

SpaceMouse

Object Mode

The SpaceMouse cap represents the model (object) on your screen. The model mirrors all movements of the cap.

Example:
Push the SpaceMouse cap right, the model moves to the right. Twist the cap to the right and your model rotates in place to the right. Lift the cap up/down and the model moves up/down.

Walk Mode

The SpaceMouse cap controls the viewport inside your scene, which always stays at eye level above the floor. The viewport mirrors all movements of the cap. When looking up or down while moving forward, the viewport maintains its altitude over your scene, allowing you to ‘walk’ through it.

Example:
Push the SpaceMouse cap right, the model moves to the right. Twist the cap to the right and your model rotates in place to the right. Lift the cap up/down and the model moves up/down.

Fly Mode

The SpaceMouse cap controls the viewport (camera) inside a scene. The viewport mirrors all movements of the cap. For more information and finding out how to enable this mode please refer to your Navisworks documentation.

Example:
Push the SpaceMouse cap to the right to pan your view to the right. Twist the cap right to turn your view to the right. Lift the cap to vertically move your view up.
