The Next-Gen Viewer in the Model Manager (Beta) tool provides a high-fidelity 3D environment for coordinating project designs. By establishing a standard Home view and optimizing performance resolution based on your hardware, you can ensure that all collaborators start from the same perspective and that your federated project model remains responsive during complex inspections.
Additional Information:
What are the hardware and software requirements for viewing models?
If you have a Procore BIM license, the Next-Gen Viewer offers limited support in Assets, Documents, and Document Management. Authorized users can access the full feature set in the Model Manager (Beta).
If you have a Procore BIM license, navigate to open the the project tools supporting the Next-Gen Viewer: Assets, Documents, Document Management, or Model Manager (Beta).

In the right toolbar, click Settings.
Choose a Measurement System:
Imperial
Metric (meters)
Metric (millimeters)
Select a Performance mode:
Low. Lowest resolution and details.
Medium. Optimized for fluid motion, less focus on details.
High. Optimized for sharper visuals, less focus on speed.
Ultra. Maximum resolution and details.
Choose a Selection Resolution:
First Object. Selects the highest-level object below the layer note. Best for checking high-level properties, or when you want to select a whole piece of equipment. For example, clicking a chair selects the entire chair group.
Last Object. Selects the lowest-level object (geometry element). Best for granular level conflict analysis, identifying specific materials, or when you want to see the properties of a sub-component. For example, clicking a chair selects only the chair (and not the group).
Select a theme from the Environment list to change your display colors.
Choose a Framerate Target:
FPS stands for Frames Per Second, which measures how many individual images your screen displays each second to create moving video. The default value is 30 FPS.
30 FPS
60 FPS
