Zoom to model?

[jmrhyne]

I am brand new to Infraworks 360 and am having a terrible time getting started.

I brought in a Civil 3D model and that worked great.  Then, I decided to bring in a second C3D model (surface).....I have no idea where the model was placed. I zoomed way out to try and find my second model, now I can't find either of them.

How would I go about finding a small piece of land that I inserted on the globe?  Isn't there any "zoom to model" type button?

Thanks.

You can click the home icon on the view cube and that will, in essence, zoom extents. You can also choose something in the model explorer and then zoom to the object selected.

Thanks, Brian. I thought I had tried the home button previously, with no success, but it appears this is the answer!

Why does it not even zoom to the model?
I am in the same zone as brian (Denver) but it doesn't zoom to the extents or model...
Why must I use this crap without it having to read a manual?
I just want it to zoom to my stuff!!!

Clicking the Home button is not the same as "Zoom Extents"  "Home" is just a "saved view."  It is quite possible to have "elements" way outside of what you see when you click the Home buttom.  

I'm still looking for the answer to"  "How do you zoom extents in Infraworks?"

I had the same issue and came here for an answer. Obviously couldn't find it so played around and found the button I was looking for - I am assuming it's the same one you were looking for.

After clicking on the model you want to zoom to in your Data Sources panel, right-click, select "Select Features" then go to the select button (the one with a standard arrow just above your selected features properties panel). A dropdown should appear with the first option being "Zoom to Selected".
