The Collaboration Module is where teams can centralize project discussions, link them to models, and ensure decisions are tracked with full transparency.
Below is an overview of the main Collaboration page, with each area numbered for reference:
1 – Visualization method
This bar controls how the screen is displayed and split. You can choose between:
- Topics only
- 3D model only
- 2D model only
- Split screen: Topics + 3D
- Split screen: Topics + 2D
- Split screen: Topics + 3D + 2D (as shown above)
2 – Ribbon
The ribbon contains the main tools of the module, organized into four tabs:
- Structure – Core functionalities for managing topics
- Navigate – Options to control visualization and views
- Quick Reports – Generate summarized reports
- Integrations – Export and import detailed tables and data
3 – Search
Allows you to search the Topic List by topic name, making it easy to locate specific items.
4 – Group by column
Enable quick grouping of topics by any available data column, helping organize information based on your analysis needs.
5 – Topic List

Note: Topics will only appear if the user has permission to view them.
6 – 3D viewer
Allows navigation within the federated 3D model, including tools for:
- Measurements
- Sections
- General model navigation via the viewer toolbar
- Mark-Ups
7 – 2D viewer
Displays the 2D model such as floor plans and sheets associated with the models.
Like the 3D viewer, it also supports measurements.
Note: This viewer displays 2D views extracted and uploaded with the models, not external PDF files.
8 – Right Sidebar
This panel provides quick access to key tools and is divided into four sections:
- Model Management – Upload models, manage versions, and connect to ACC.
- Filters – Refine which topics or data are displayed.
- Properties – View or edit element properties (depending on permissions)
- Go to room – Navigate directly to specific model environments.
With this overview, you’re ready to explore the Collaboration module in more depth and start managing project topics efficiently and consistently.
