Chapter 9

Creating Visualizations with Autodesk Navisworks

Autodesk Navisworks has a unique presentation and rendering tool called Presenter, which lets you add materials, lighting, and effects to bring your models to life. We have spent plenty of time in this book laboring on our projects, learning how to complete tasks associated with clash detection and scheduling and some of the navigation features. Now it's time to focus on the visualization tools within Navisworks, because with Presenter you can go way beyond clash detection and scheduling.

In this chapter, you'll learn to:

  • Add RPC objects to your model
  • Determine which of the two graphics systems better suits your purpose
  • Use the rendering engine inside Navisworks
