When users scroll through the clashes they can view the summary preview of the identified clashes. This helps users in locating the clashes conveniently. If required Navisworks users can resize the columns. Results tab allow users to group the clashes into folders depending upon their gravity to affect the project. Another reason behind grouping clashes is to manage the clashes appropriately as they are detected in large numbers. Users have the luxury of viewing the summary of newly selected clash test as it is displayed right on top of Results tab. The Test Panel can be displayed by the users at any point of time simply by clicking at ‘expansion button’ within Results tab. The status of the clashes is visually identified under ‘Status column’ within Results tab. Within the status column clashes are shown as ‘New’ ‘Active’ ‘Reviewed’ ‘Approved’ and ‘Resolved.’ So in this way Results tab helps in understanding the identified clashes.
