The View Data measure that is showcased in that video you linked to is an example of a reporting measure (as opposed to an OpenStudio Measure or EnergyPlus Measure). Any reporting measure can be viewed within OpenStudio after a simulation, but it should also generate an HTML file that stores that same information you can view in OpenStudio. For the View Data measure, you want to look in the following folder: 'folder name matching your OSM name'\run\view_data or something similar.
According to this post, there may been an issue with using this measure in OpenStudio Application v1.0, so you may need to install an updated version that's not on BCL.
This post has also noted some issues with internet browsers used to view the generated HTML file.

This is an interactive way to examine the geometry of the building, but it doesn't generate a floor plan for each story to lay out spaces and thermal zones.
