Known Issues
Not all components in the AutoCAD Model are dimmed correctly when isolating the clash components. To work around this issue, you can change the highlight colors, or turn Isolation off. This will make the clash components easier to see.
Pressing F1 for help on the ribbon buttons in Navisworks Manage does not work as expected (AutoCAD is fine). Either two tabs will be opened in the browser (Clash Management Suite on one, and Naviswork Manage Help on the other) or one tab displaying Navisworks Manage Help. The Help documentation works as expected in the panels. We are trying to figure this out.
