3D Studio Max
Why does 3D Max have this feature...
-
25 Sep 2006Left-click and drag the scale button, or just keep hitting 'r' until you drop, but basically select the 'Select and Squash' option.
Now I have used 3D Max for a while now, but never, EVER, have I even thought about using this. Why would anyone want this? Nobody wants this, you can't want this.
Post your least understood feature of Max too if you have one.

ALi 608 posts26 Sep 2006yep. I have never used that before. -
26 Sep 2006are you talking about the different scaling options? like, the same thing as clicking on the outer edge of the scaling viewport icon, so you only get a scale in one or two direction, not all three?
cuz i use that all the time!

26 Sep 2006Onno: the squash-scale function is quite handy when animating, and I use it all the time
Personally, I find viewport clipping to be a useless feature in the sense that I have never found the need to clip my geometry in the viewports. The only times I've dealt with that "feature" were times I've tried to turn it off.

26 Sep 2006No way can you have a use for that. I can't believe it! No!
-
ALi 608 posts26 Sep 2006I missunderstood onno!
but I haven't used it much. though it's useful while animating. -
29 Sep 2006if anyone remembers, the animate key was the biggest key in max(for good reason) until they changed it in 5 or 6. i rmemeber when i upgraded and the animate key was gone, i was so bummed and it actually took me a while to figure out that auto key was the same thing.
