Hello,

I am new to using navisworks. I am trying form a c# application to read a navisworks file (.nwd or .nwf). The problem is I do not know and cannot get how to retrieve the required data from the file. For example, If a model stored in the file is a cube, I should be able to get information About this model like its dimensions, its position, position of vertices, etc.. I looked at the navisworks manage 2012 .net API but cannot find how to do it. Also I want to able to retrieve the schedule/costs (if they are included in the file). Thanks in advance.
