Heads Up Display (XYZ Corrdinates)

This may be an easy one, but I am unable to find a way to turn the XYZ corrdinates off on the bottom left of the ActiveX control for NavisWorks.  I'm looking to export images from a model, to put into a report.  I can export the image and resize it correctly, but the XYZ corrdinates from the control remain the same size and only show half the Corrdinates within the image.

 

Is there an easy way to hide these corrdinates within the ActiveX control, that I may be missing.  I've dug through the control with no luck so far.

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

I think you can turn it off just by changing registry settings, but you’ll need to make sure the ActiveX control isn’t running when you do it.

 

e.g. with NW2013 Redistributable control.  

 

show_position = 0

xyz_triad = 0

 

in  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\Navisworks ActiveX Redistributable\10.0\GlobalOptions\interface\display\hud

 

the icons will not appear.

 

show_position = 3 1

xyz_triad = 3 1

 

Note, there is a space in between “3” and “1”

 

The icons will appear.

Dear Xiaodong,

 

Is it possible to turn on the HUD in .Net Api?

 

Thanks,

John

Dear John,

the API for HUD is still a wish. I do not see a way at this moment. Sorry if this is bad news for you.
But for .NET control, it looks to me the HUD is turned on by default.

Dear XiaoDong,

 

Thanks for your reply.

It is really a bad new for me.Smiley Sad

 

Nevertheless, I can turn it on in Navisworks and the HUD will be dispalyed in .Net control.

 

Best Regards,

John

Here you go. Toggle this on and off, and this will fix your problem.
