The 2D navigation in Next-Gen Viewer provides a familiar context for your 3D models, allowing users to bridge the gap between traditional floor plans and 3D geometry. This feature helps users instantly orient themselves in complex projects and move through a model quickly by using 2D overlays. By combining 2D layouts with intuitive, point-and-click movement, teams can verify installation details efficiently without needing specialized 3D training.
