Model tab

The Model tab allows you to navigate to specific parts of the model and to select what the 3D view shows, using a drop-down menu and a hierarchical tree.

• Hierarchy Menu – Use the hierarchy drop-down menu to arrange the model tree using a hierarchy that an eShare administrator has defined.

  

• Model Tree – The model tree lists the objects of the model as a hierarchical entity tree; the displayed hierarchy is defined by the hierarchy menu.

• Select one or more objects or object groups, as described in Selecting objects and changing their visibility.

• Double-click a single object to examine the object in the 3D view. To examine a group, select the Examine command from the context menu.

• Click the eye icon to hide objects, and click the closed eye to show them again.
