Autodesk Navisworks Simulate  2010

Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate 2010 software includes Navisworks Review and adds 4D scheduling & photorealistic visualisation capabilities.

Navisworks software helps enable design, engineering and building professionals to unite project contributions into a single, synchronized building information model. By helping enable team members to more reliably share, combine, review and perfect detailed 3D design models of any size or format, Autodesk Navisworks solutions are at the core of the BIM & Plant design workflows.

New Features in Autodesk Navisworks 2010 Software

Enhanced Usability:

• On-screen ViewCube® widget allows users to orbit the 3D scene and provides feedback about the current camera viewing angle in relation to the model world. The ViewCube also provides a clickable interface to switch between model views.
• Task-based SteeringWheels® floating tool palettes travel with the cursor to help minimize tool access time. Tools are grouped into various wheels depending on the navigation task and user skill level.
• Measurement displays are directly in the scene view, helping to increase efficiency as it is no longer necessary to go to the Measure Tools control bar to read measurement results.

Improved Workflow Functionality:

• New measure tools allow users to measure the shortest distance between two objects and the distance between centerlines.
• Focus on smaller subsections of the unified model using the new section box and align section tools.

Updated and Enhanced Interoperability:

• Navisworks continues to offer support for the latest 2010 versions of Autodesk design applications, including the AutoCAD® and Revit®-based products and Autodesk® Inventor®2010 software.
• Support for non-Autodesk applications such as ArchiCAD 12 have been updated, and a new format has been introduced, JT Open.
