Hi

did you find Viewpoint.HeightField ?

Defines camera field of view in combination with aspect ratio. For a perspective camera, this is the vertical field of view (the angle between top and bottom planes of the camera view frustum). For an orthographic camera, this is the distance between top and bottom planes of the camera view frustum. Default 0.785398 (45 degrees)

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the default setting for Field of View in Navisworks?

I'm trying to figure this out as well. Ideally what I'm looking for is a way to modify this (as well as the walk speed) in an .xml export. I'm using iConstruct and it keeps messing with the defaults. I'd like to fix this in the .xml before sending to the design team. I can link this to a power shell script. PLEASE HELP ASAP!

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out where to go to find Viewpoint.HeightField and what to do once i find it to resolve the F.O.V issue.

Not sure of the procedure to do so. Can you give a step by step please?

Thank you,
