To sort datasets, click the sort icon and select how you want to sort the datasets.
Hiding or unhiding datasets
To hide or unhide a single dataset, switch to point clouds in the 3D view and click the eye icon next to the dataset.
To hide or unhide all datasets on a floor or in a building, switch to point clouds in the 3D view and click the eye icon next to the floor or building name. Showing or hiding a dataset also shows or hides its associated point cloud.
FAQ

Click the Site Structure icon in the topbar.
What happens when I click the navigation icon next to a dataset?
The view moves to the corresponding dataset.
How can I filter the datasets displayed in the structure menu?
Click the filter icon and select which items to display: Site entities, Datasets, or All.
Is it possible to view datasets based on the camera's position?
Yes. Toggle on Currently in view to adjust the datasets shown according to your camera position and viewing direction.
Why do I need to switch to point clouds to hide datasets?
Displaying point clouds in the 3D view lets you hide or unhide datasets and their associated point clouds.
A dataset is a piece of a site: the result of a continuous recording with a NavVis mapping device, or an imported point cloud. Datasets can contain panoramic images and point clouds.
A Site Model is a three-dimensional model that clusters information by assigning meaningful names to clearly defined areas of a site. With a Site Model, you can define and name the buildings, floors, rooms, or more fine-grained spaces of a site in NavVis IVION. Among other things, this information powers the floor changer and enriches POI search.
