3dsmax edit uvws +zoom dont work

NAIMA

SO another problem , after the windows 10 install and reinstall of my 3dsmax , I have gone into editing uvws and what I find out is that the zoom with the scroll button onmy mousewheel now doesn't work anymore , it works fine out of the uvws edit window , inthe normal viewport of the model , but when I go into the window for editing the uvw map it doesn't ... is there any setting I am missing perhaps?

NAIMA

Any Help on how to fix? Its annoying not beeing able to zoom in and out in the uvmap view .

I can't remember if it's supossed to work in the UV window but maybe the other zoom options work?
Not a fix, but a workaround.

ctrl+alt+ middle or right mouse and dragging zooms in the viewports for example.

How the zoom icon looks like? Maybe only scroll is broken? Try to use that option from the menu It's on the down-right corner. Second option: walk trough: you will be able to fly over the scene with it. (footsteps icon). Third one: use orbit and then try to zoom.

I mean only the edit woindow for the uvmap , I can zoom in and outfine in the viewportwith the scroll wheel of the mouse , but not in the uvmap window wich is totally annoying ...

NAIMA

checking the guide it says to go to customize user interface , then mouse tab and edit stuff there ....

problem is I do not see any mouse tab in that custom user interface, I just have keyboard , toolbars , quads, menus and colors , but no mouse ... something wrong?

Ok, but still- what about zoom icon inside window, can you click on it?

You're Max Version is prior to the 2013 version I think and so you don't have a mouse Tab.

whatever it is , but befoure win 10 worked , after I had to reinstall and doesn't work anymore , my version is 3dsmax 2011 .

I have max set to 1=pan 2=zoom 3=orbit. I mapped hotkeys in the uv editor for pan and zoom at 1 and 2 as well. It works with the uv editor window open and then the default keymapper button active (strange but true). You can map the hotkeys through the customize menus dialog.

NAIMA

can u post me a screenshot of what to press to reach that menu ? because I can't find the mouse menu in customize .

We just had this in work after upgrading to Windows 10 (Max2010) and the art team went into minor meltdown. Thankfully a colleague found a solution

– Click the Start button.

– Click Settings.

– Click Devices.

– Click Mouse & touchpad.

– Toggle the “Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them” setting to Off.

Go back to max behaving properly!

great tip! running windows 7 with xmouse button control here and had the same issue in max 2011.

going into xmouse control window, clicking on settings and unchecking "make scroll wheel scroll window under cursor" does the trick. maybe that will help someone down the years.
