Tools
 The geometry tools navigator.
General tools
Select by layer
This selects all spaces in the model which have the same layer property as the currently selected space.
Select by colour
This selects all spaces in the model which have the same colour property as the currently selected space.
Open viewer to perform visual checks
This opens the model viewer (basic) in order to visually examine the model for correctness.
Expand or Shrink openings
Create single shell from all spaces
Combines all the spaces into a single shell.
 
Warning: Should be used with caution.
Split combined space
Splits up the currently selected combined space into its constituent sub-spaces.
Rename spaces
Rename all selected spaces.
 
Geometry checks
 
Detach DXF
Removes the attached dxf file.
Remove construction lines
Removes all constructions lines from model.
Perform geometry consistency check
(Same function as found in Settings > model > check menu in ModelIT).
Open model consistency check results
This will open the results of the geometry check.  This step is dependent on previous step (Perform geometry consistency check) having been carried out first.
Export templates, systems and constructions to XML
This navigator step outputs the template data, system data and construction data to an XML file.
Speed up model edit
Some functions added by request in order to speed up the manipulation of geometry for very large projects.
 
Enable sparse mode
Switches off model browser and undo operation in order to improve the response time while working with larger models in ModelIT.
 
Warning: Should be used with caution and disabled when current edits are finished.
 
Disable sparse mode
Switches the browser update and undo operation back on.
 
Refresh model browser
Re-populates the model browser with the current model status.
This is required if you have been using the sparse mode.
