NOTE This option does not affect the normal behavior of space objects that have visible 3D geometry in DWG files. Material Search Paths Autodesk Navisworks automatically searches the default Autodesk material paths. Use this box to specify additional paths to texture files used in Autodesk Architectural Desktop materials. Separate the paths with semi-columns. Render Type Specifies the render style used for objects when loading DWG files. Selecting Automatic means Autodesk Navisworks uses the render style saved in DWG files. If geometry is not correctly displayed, adjust the render style with one of the following options: Rendered, Shaded, or Wireframe. Buttons Defaults Restores the default values. Advanced Opens the "Convert Object Properties dialog box" on page 439 where you can select third-party applications to read object information from.

Select from the following options: ■ None - the points come through as white. ■ Intensity - the points use the intensity values stored in the file. ■ Color - the points use the color values stored in the file. NOTE If the selected option is not available, then the file reader defaults to the values used in the file. For example, if you set Point Colors to Color, but only intensities are available in the file, then the file reader uses the intensities.

Convert Bounding Boxes Select this check box to bring through and visualize bounding boxes. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores bounding boxes. Convert Spaces Select this check box to bring through and visualize spaces. When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores spaces. Faceting Factor Enter the required value to control the level of faceting that takes place. The faceting factor must be greater or equal to 0, where 0 results in the faceting factor being turned off. The default value is 1. When you double the value, you get twice the number of facets. When you halve the value you get half as many facets. Larger faceting factors result in more polygons to a model and larger Autodesk Navisworks files. Max Facet Deviation This setting controls the greatest distance between the edge of a facet and the actual geometry. If this distance is greater than the Max Facet Deviation value, Autodesk Navisworks adds more facets. 424 | Chapter 17 Autodesk Navisworks Reference
