Use the Right Toolbar
Procore Model Manager - Beta Access & Feedback
The Model Manager (Beta) features and documentation are subject to change without notice.
To learn about the beta program, see the Beta Participant Guide.
The toolbar next to the Navigation Sphere on the right side of the page Next-Gen Viewer helps to control the visual environment and your interactions with the model. While the left toolbar deals with object data, the right toolbar helps you manipulate the model.
Things to Consider
Required User Permissions
Currently, only Admin permissions are available. Procore will add more permission levels later.

Icon | Description | Purpose & Key Functionality | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Perspective/Orthographic | Spatial vs. Technical: Toggles between realistic depth (Perspective) for spatial awareness and flattened views (Orthographic) for precise alignment. | Snaps to nearest standard plane (Top, Side, etc). | |
Render Modes | Layer Control: Toggles visibility for lines, terrain meshes, wireframes, and point clouds. | Useful for decluttering complex models. | |
X-Ray Mode | Internal Visibility: Increases transparency to see obscured components without hiding geometry. | Essential for MEP and internal structural checks. | |
Dimensions Flyout | Precision Analysis: Expands the measurement sub-menu (Laser, Coordinates, Point-to-Point). | Primary entry point for all dimensioning. | |
Laser | Multi-Directional: Automatically snaps between surfaces to provide instant X, Y, and Z measurements. | Best for surface-to-edge calculations. See Calculate Surface-to-Edge Measurements with the Laser Tool | |
Coordinates | Spot Coordinates: Extracts precise XYZ data from any specific point in the model. | Used for verifying exact site locations. See Get Precise Spot Coordinates (X, Y, Z) with the Coordinates Tool | |
Point to Point | Spatial Distance: Calculates the direct distance between two selected objects. | Used for clearance and spatial relationship checks. See Verify Dimensions & Spatial Relationships with the Point to Point Tool | |
Sectioning Flyout | Internal Inspection: Accesses tools to slice or crop the model view. | Primary entry point for all sectioning. | |
Section Plane | 2D Slicing: Creates a planar cut through the model to view cross-sections. | Non-destructive; geometry is not deleted. | |
Check back for updates… | Section Box | Spatial Isolation: Crops a specific 3D portion of the model within a bounding box. | Best for isolating specific rooms or MEP clusters. Check back for updates… |
| Quit/Exit | Command Termination: Immediately closes active modes and reverts cursor to default selection. | Only appears when a mode is active. |
Undo | History Navigation: Reverts camera movements, measurements, and actions. | Check back for updates… | |
Redo | History Navigation: Reapplies camera movements, measurements, and actions. | Check back for updates… | |
Settings | Viewer Configuration: Manage Imperial/Metric units and adjust Render Quality (Low to Ultra). | Customize your viewer settings. |
