The second button in the Navigator Palette displays the Navigator View Map: the list of saved Views available in your project file.
A View is a stored version of a Viewpoint; each view is defined by its adjustable View Settings that you configure for a particular purpose as you construct your Virtual Building. Every saved view is listed in the Navigator Palette’s View Map.

To modify view settings, select the view and click Settings at the bottom of the View Map. Views can be created within the active project or imported from other ARCHICAD projects.

Note: You can create a dynamic connection between project viewpoints and views if you clone a folder.
