or
• Click Shaded on the Rendering Style toolbar.
Wireframe Render
This option renders the model in wireframe. As NavisWorks uses triangles to represent surfaces and
solids, all triangle edges are visible in this mode.
To select wireframe render:
• On the Viewpoint menu, click Rendering > Wireframe
or
• Click Wireframe on the Rendering Style toolbar.
Hidden Line Render
This option renders the model in hidden line. This requires a two pass rendering algorithm so is
equivalent to rendering shaded and wireframe at the same time. The output is low quality as all the facet
edges in the model are visible.
To select hidden line render:
• On the Viewpoint menu, click Rendering > Hidden Line
or
• Click Hidden Line on the Rendering Style toolbar.
Display Primitives
The second part of the rendering style toolbar allows you enable and disable the drawing of surfaces,
lines, points, snap points, and 3D text. Points are "real" points in the model, whereas snap points mark
locations on other primitives, for example the center of a circle, and are useful for snapping to when
measuring.
Surfaces
Surfaces are the triangles that make up the 2D and 3D items in the scene.
To toggle the rendering of surfaces on or off:
