Change 3DSMax navigation to be like Modo?

PolyHertz

I was wondering if this is possible? I believe there was a plugin for changing Max to use the Maya navigation setup but what about Modo? I haven't tried Max2014 yet,but maybe there's a native way to change this sort of thing in there by now?

I don't know which version of Max you are using, or what Modo navigation entails. If you are using Max 2013 you may be able to use the Customize User Interface > Mouse options to adapt the navigation.

Modos navigation works like this:
Rotate = atl+lmb
Zoom = alt+ctrl+lmb
Pan = alt+shift+lmb

I have Max 2012, but good to know the option is available in newer versions at least.

Hi PolyHerts,
did this work for you, the modo navigation in Max?
It works for me in 3dsMax2014
alt+lmb (rotate)
alt+shift+lbm (pan)
alt+ctrl+lbm (zoom)

...but...

...if I set this, then I have problems with the Rectangular Selection Method. To deselect polys I have to use the alt+lbm (default 3dsmax), which I just mapped to rotate. :poly117:

Anyway to come around this? I use wacom and I love that navigation where the pen is always on the wacom surface. I could exchange lmb to mmb instead, but it's just not that cool.
