Notification Icon
Notification icon indicates whether any new information is available. Balloon notifications appear over this icon
whenever new Communication Center content is available. You can right-click this icon to turn off the
notifications, or to customize the Communication Center options.
Pencil Progress Bar
The progress bar under the left hand icon (pencil) indicates how much of the current view is drawn, that is how
much drop-out there is in the current viewpoint. When the progress bar is at 100%, the scene is completely
drawn, with no drop-out. The icon changes color when a redraw is in progress. Whilst the scene is being drawn,
the pencil will change to yellow. If there is too much data to handle and your machine cannot process this
quickly enough for Autodesk Navisworks, then the pencil changes to red, indicating a bottleneck.
Disk Progress Bar
The progress bar under the central icon (disk) indicates how much of the current model is loaded from disk, that
is how much is loaded into memory. When the progress bar is at 100%, the entire model, including geometry
and property information, is loaded into memory. The icon changes color when a file load is in progress. Whilst
data is being read, the disk changes to yellow. If there is too much data to handle and your machine cannot
process this quickly enough for Autodesk Navisworks, then the disk changes to red, indicating a bottleneck.
Web Server Progress Bar
The progress bar under the right hand icon (web server) indicates how much of the current model is downloaded,
that is how much has been downloaded from a web server. When the progress bar is at 100%, the entire model
has been downloaded. The icon changes color when a file load is in progress. Whilst data is being downloaded,
the web server changes to yellow. If there is too much data to handle and your machine cannot process this
quickly enough for Autodesk Navisworks, then the web server changes to red, indicating a bottleneck.
Memory Bar
The field to the right of the icons reports the amount of memory currently being used by Autodesk Navisworks.
This is reported in Megabytes (MB).
Undo/Redo Commands
