Expand the drop-down menu to filter your models by their associated BIM 360 Document Management projects.
00:56
Once you have selected a model, InfraWorks Home closes, and the canvas appears with the model centered and zoomed to extents.
01:06
The toolbar provides intuitive tools specific to your phase of work, tools for cloud collaboration,
01:13
and tools that you can use across many phases of work.
01:18
