All 17 questions on the FAQ pageHow do I install the plugin?
Download and install directly from the Autodesk App Store. The installer adds a Productivity Toolbox ribbon tab to Navisworks Manage or Simulate the next time you launch the application. It installs for the current Windows user and does not need administrator rights.
Which Navisworks versions are supported?
Navisworks 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027, Manage and Simulate editions, on 64-bit Windows. One installer covers every version; the plugin loads the build that matches the Navisworks you start. The plugin interface is in English.
Does it work with Navisworks Simulate?
Group Elements, the Selection Set Manager, image and HTML reports, take-offs, and property import and export work in both Navisworks Manage and Navisworks Simulate. Clash Manager, Clash Results, Save Matrix and Load Matrix need Navisworks Manage, because Simulate has no Clash Detective. On Simulate those four buttons are greyed out with a Navisworks Manage only tooltip. The Section Box Manager and Generate Timeline work in both editions.
Where is the help for each command?
Every ribbon button has a tooltip that says what it does, what it needs and what it produces. Pressing F1 on a button opens the section of the user guide on this site that documents the command. The tutorials page lists every video.
