To Navigate a Building Information Plan

This procedure outlines the steps for navigating a building information plan using SmartView .
  1. If necessary, open the desired building information plan
    The plan will open in a new browser window.
  2. On displayed images, swipe left or right to navigate between images in the selected gallery
    Tip: On a desktop device, swipe between images by clicking and dragging left or right.
    Note: The number of images in a gallery is indicated by the number of pagination dots displayed below the current image.
  3. If the displayed image has active (hyperlinked) icon annotations, select an icon to navigate to the linked annotation info
    Tip: If any icons are overlapping, they will be animated to fade in and out. Tapping any of these icons will cause the pins to re-position, with lines drawn to indicate their original position. Selecting one of these icons will present any linked information, while selecting any other part of the image will restore the original icon positioning. The Animation Pause icon in the top-right of the window stops/starts the animation.
  4. To navigate to other sections within the plan, select a section from the main hyperlink menu
    Trouble: If the main menu is not displayed, it may be minimized. To expand the main menu on iPad or a desktop device, select the expand button. To expand the menu on iPhone or other smartphones, tap the expand icon.
  5. To navigate within a plan section, swipe/scroll up or down to view the collected information
    Tip: The breadcrumb menu, located directly above the displayed section, provides a navigable hierarchy view. Using this menu, you can navigate upwards through the directory structure of the building plan.
  6. To close the plan, select the close browser icon for the building plan's browser window/tab
