To constrain the position of the clipping planes manually in a 3D workspace
1 Click Home tab ➤ Project panel ➤ File Options
.
2 In the File Options dialog box, click the Culling tab.
3 Select Constrained for the Near clipping plane, and enter the desired
value in the Distance box.
4 Select Constrained for the Far clipping plane, and enter the desired
value in the Distance box.
5 Click OK.
Autodesk Navisworks uses the provided values unless doing so affects
the system performance (for example, makes the whole model invisible),
in which case it adjusts the position of the clipping planes as necessary.
To fix the position of the clipping planes in a 3D workspace

2 In the File Options dialog box, click the Culling tab.
3 Select Fixed for the Near clipping plane, and enter the desired value in
the Distance box.

the Distance box.
5 Click OK.
IMPORTANT Autodesk Navisworks uses the provided values even if doing
so affects the system performance (for example, makes the whole model
invisible).
Make Objects Required
Although Autodesk Navisworks intelligently prioritizes objects for culling in
the scene, sometimes it drops out geometry that needs to remain visible while
navigating.
You can make sure the objects are always rendered during interactive
navigation by making them required.
