Navigator

Use the navigator to activate section planes, hide or isolate entities, undo/redo actions, and open the explore panel.

The navigator can be found at the bottom-right of the Qonic application window.

Group 498

It can be used for the following actions:

  1. Activate a section plane. Either manually create a temporary section plane in any direction or activate a horizontal section plane based on the story/level information in the model. A green notification dot indicated that a section plane is currently active.
  2. Hide or isolate elements. Select the entities you wish you hide/isolate, click the eye icon in the navigator, and click to Set As Scope or Remove From Scope. A green notification dot indicates that there are currently objects out of scope. 
  3. Undo. If there is nothing left to undo, the button will be greyed out. Alternatively, use Ctrl+Z or the Left Arrow key.
  4. Redo. If there is nothing left to redo, the camera will zoom in or out so that the entire scope is in view. Alternatively, use Ctrl+Y or the Right Arrow key.
  5. Reset your view. This will clear any active section planes, reset the current scope, and zoom in or out to the extents of the model.

Note: changing the active scope is not only a visual change. Objects that are out of scope (i.e. hidden from view) will also not be shown in search results and will not be affected by modeling tools.
