I created a model in Infraworks using Model Builder (c.150 sq.km) and exported the model to fbx. I loaded the fbx files into Navisworks Simulate and all looked good - aerial imagery was as expected and I saved this as an nwc file.
I wanted then to pass this model to the client who doesn't have Navisworks so I thought the Freedom viewer would be the answer. I saved the nwc as an nwd file but when I tested it in Freedom the aerial imagery was missing (but everything else was ok) so I'm a bit stuck now.
Is there a method to get this imagery into the Freedom viewer or is this behaviour as designed??

If I understand you correctly, the Arial view is another window with a top view of the same model.
This is, just like your placement of the "Selection Tree" and the "Measure",the "Saved Viewpints" and the "Properties" windows, part of your "Workspace"
If you can make all those settings (how you want the layout of our interface) in your Freedom, then you can
View -> Save Workspace.
Then you can send over this XML to the client
He should save the XML in Program Files\Autodesk\Navisworks Freedom 20nn\Workspaces
and then he can choose this workspace from the interface in
View -> Load Workspace
I Include such an Workspace XML in my deployment of Freedom and Simulate, so that end-users can always go back to that workspace if they miss a dialog window.
@Patrick_Aps_9121 Thanks for the reply - my problem was that the aerial imagery was missing but I have recreated the nwc/nwd from the source fbx and all seems ok now
However the answer you gave was useful as I was unaware that this procedure was possible...:)

Are you using Publish to NWD rather than "save as NWD"?
