View Scene Statistics
Scene statistics display information about the current scene.
Scene statistics list all files contributing to the scene, and the
different graphic elements that make up the scene, along with which
of these have been processed or ignored when loaded.
Other useful statistics are the bounding box of the entire scene and
the total number of primitives (triangles, lines, points) in the scene.

Navigate a Scene
In Autodesk Navisworks, you have a variety of options for navigating
your scene.
You can directly manipulate your position in 3D space with nine
navigation modes on the Navigation Modes toolbar. You can also
use StreeringWheels that travel with the cursor, and can save you
time by combining many of the common navigation tools into a
single interface.
You can change the orientation and view of your model by using
the preset views available from the Viewpoint
➤
Navigation Tools
menu. Alternatively, you can use the ViewCube, a 3D navigational
tool that enables you to reorient the view of a model by clicking
predefined areas on the cube. For example, clicking the front of the
ViewCube turns the view until the camera is facing the front of the
scene. You can also click the ViewCube and drag it to rotate the
view freely.
You can use the options on the Navigation Tools toolbar to control
the realism of your navigation. So, for example, you can walk down
stairs or follow terrain, crouch under objects, use an avatar to
represent yourself within the 3D model.
