When you click in the Scene View, Autodesk Navisworks requires a starting
point for the object path in the Selection Tree box to identify the selected
item. You can choose one of the following options:
■ Model - the object path starts at the model node; as a result, all objects
in the model are selected.
■ Layer - the object path starts at the layer node; as a result all objects within
a layer are selected.
■ First Object - the object path starts at the highest level of objects below
the layer node, if applicable.
■ Last Object - the object path starts at the lowest level of objects in the
Selection Tree. Autodesk Navisworks looks for composite objects first,
and if none are found, the geometry level is used instead. This is the default
option.
■ Last Unique - the object path starts at the first unique level of objects
(not multiple-instanced) in the Selection Tree.
■ Geometry - the object path starts from the geometry level in the
Selection Tree.
Compact Tree Specifies the level of detail shown on the Compact tab of the
Selection Tree.
Use one of the following options:
■ Models - the tree is restricted to displaying model files only.
■ Layers - the tree can be expanded down to the layer level.
■ Objects - can be expanded down to the objects level, but without the
levels of instancing shown on the Standard tab.
