The Model Manager (Beta) tool is exclusively available to registered beta participants. It is not available through Procore Explore. To learn more, see Beta Participant Guide.
Currently, only Admin permissions are available. 'Read-Only' and 'Standard' permission levels are coming soon.
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.
Navigate to the Model Manager (Beta) tool.
Open the federated project model, a project view, or a model file if you have permission.
Learn how to use the right toolbar with this reference.
Icon | Description | Purpose & Key Functionality | Notes | Available in the Viewer in these Procore Project Tools |
|---|---|---|---|---|
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). | Assets | |
Render Modes | Layer Control: Toggles visibility for lines, terrain meshes, wireframes, and point clouds. | Useful for decluttering complex models. | Assets | |
X-Ray | Internal Visibility: Increases transparency to see obscured components without hiding geometry. | Essential for MEP and internal structural checks. Click the icon or press the CMD+X keys. See Isolate Objects | Assets | |
Measure Tools | Precision Analysis: Expands the measurement sub-menu (Laser, Coordinates, Point-to-Point). | Primary entry point for all dimensioning. | Assets | |
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 | Assets | |
Coordinates | Spot Coordinates: Extracts precise XYZ data from any specific point in the model. There is no limit to the number of points you can measure. | Used for verifying exact site locations. See Get Precise Spot Coordinates (X, Y, Z) with the Coordinates Tool | Assets | |
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 | Assets | |
| Section Tools | Internal Inspection: Accesses tools to slice or crop the model view. | Primary entry point for all section tools. See Add a Section Plane. | Assets |
Section Plane | 2D Slicing: Creates a planar cut through the model to view cross-sections. | Non-destructive; geometry is not deleted. | Assets | |
Not available. 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. | -- |
| Save and Exit | Commit Changes: Finalizes the position or parameters of an active tool (e.g., a section plane) | Only appears in Tool Mode. Click the icon or press the ENTER key. See Manage Tool Modes in the Viewer. | Assets |
| Clear and Exit | Exit Tool: Discards temporary modifications, exits the active tool, and returns to standard viewing. | Only appears in Tool Mode. Click the icon or press the ESCAPE key. See Manage Tool Modes in the Viewer. | Assets |
Reset | Reset: Restores the all viewer adjustments to their default state in a single action. | Not available. Check back for updates… | Assets | |
Undo | History Navigation: Reverts camera movements, measurements, and actions. | Click the icon or press the CMD+Z keys. | Assets | |
Redo | History Navigation: Reapplies camera movements, measurements, and actions. | Click the icon or press CMD+SHIFT+Z or CMD+Y. | Assets | |
Settings | Viewer Configuration: Manage Imperial/Metric units and adjust Render Quality (Low to Ultra). | Customize your viewer settings. | Assets |
