Focus
You can put the Scene View into focus mode until the next click.
When you are in focus mode, clicking on an item swivels the camera so that
the point clicked is in the center of the view. This point becomes the focal
point for the Orbit tools (SteeringWheels and navigation bar) in a 3D workspace
only.
In the Classic user interface, 3D workspace, this point becomes the focal
point for examine, orbit, and turntable
classic navigation modes (page 130).
In a 2D workspace, the camera is moved to the center of the box of focused
item while the z value remains the same.

When you navigate around a model in Autodesk Navisworks, it is possible to
“pick up” or hold selected items and move around with them in the model.
For example you may be viewing a plan for a factory and would like to see
different configurations of machine layouts.
