A plugin for Autodesk Navisworks that automates the mechanical work of BIM coordination: property-driven selection and search sets, clash grouping and history, viewpoint colour-coding, section boxes by room or level, TimeLiner tasks from selection sets, reports and quantity take-offs.
Each module runs inside Navisworks as a dockable pane or a ribbon command, on the federated model you already have open.
A list of property rules becomes a nested breakdown of the federated model by level, discipline, system, contractor, phase or any property the model carries. Save the tree as sets, and rerun the rules after the next model update. A rule set reads the model once for all its rules, and Import Rules flags missing properties before it runs and lists every rule that fails with the reason.
Navisworks Manage only
Auto-group a whole test by nearest level, grid, assignee, status, source file or an item property, move results with Add To Group or drag and drop, and set the status of every result in a test at once. Pick any element to find every clash touching it, rename results in batch, and update the type, tolerance or name of every checked test while keeping their results.
The groups on one level of a grouping carry a colour in the model. Isolate or recolour groups, then export the tree as saved viewpoints that keep its folder structure and colours, ready before the coordination meeting starts.
Pick a selection set folder and get the matching TimeLiner task tree: one summary task per folder and one task per set, attached to its set. The UniFormat by level blueprint sorts levels by height, puts the trades in construction order and staggers the levels so the structure runs ahead of the fit-out. Planned dates are laid out from a start date, and blueprints can be edited and shared.
Revit rooms listed under their levels. One click sections the view to a room or level, at the room's own height or the full storey, and checked rows are sectioned together.
Save Matrix writes the selection set folders, nested folders included, to an Excel grid. Load Matrix previews the tests it will create, update or skip, and updates existing tests instead of duplicating them. Navisworks Manage only.
Standard, Assigned To, Detailed and Matrix reports, each opening on a Summary sheet. An export can append to a history workbook that tracks new, resolved and reappeared clashes. Navisworks Manage only.
Each group moves away from the others, one direction per grouping level and up to three axes, so every floor and every system sits apart. Transform overrides only, reset in one click.
Select anything in the model and see each selection or search set that contains it, nested folders included, with a status column for complete or partial coverage.
One rendered image per group, or a printable HTML report with a cover page, contents and one A4 page per group with four views.
Sum lengths, areas, volumes or any decimal property for every group, converted to the unit you pick, exported to Excel with a pivot summary or to CSV.
Export chosen properties per element to Excel or CSV, write spreadsheet values back onto matching elements, and copy Revit ids for Select by ID.
Grouping, Import Rules, Cache Properties, clash test updates, Explode Model and saving groups to sets stop from the progress bar and keep what was finished.
Setting a status, renaming or grouping clash results, an auto-group run and a matrix load are each a single undo step.
Settings, rules, caches, blueprints and Excel exports are saved without risk of a half-written file, and read the same on every Windows language.
An illustrated user guide, a Help panel on the ribbon, a tooltip on every button and F1 for the help page of any command.
Error reports leave out file paths and user names, and the error dialog shows a reference code to quote in a support email.
An automated test suite runs on every supported Navisworks release. Many of the fixes in 3.0.0 came from it.
