Hello @Anonymous
Thank you for posting, I understand you are trying to run a batch job daily using Navisworks.
Which version of Navisworks are you using?
Could you post a screencast or screenshots to help describe what is not working. It would be helpful to understand your workflow and what is not working for you.
Looking forward to your reply!
Hello @michael.coviello
We are running Navisworks 2019, and the batch is working but we would like also to somehow setup the batch to have better lighting and orthographic view . here is the syntax screen shot from the batch:
Can we add lines to batch file with mentioned options for orthographic view and scene lights? I have attached two additional photos of default working environment and edited one, second with more lights and graduated background is what we want.
Hello @roko.katic
The batch utility will use the individual file loaders to do things like set the default view, background and render style although this is on a per file basis.
The best option for you might be a .NET plugin that loads the file then changes the current view to have the desired settings, then save an NWD file.
I recommend posting on the Navisworks API forum describing the goals of what you're trying to achieve.

Here is one post in particular that may help in your case.
