3Ds Max FOV

Hello,

so i just want to ask you guys, if any of you know how to set 3ds max FOV to, for example 60, and make it default forever? Coz when u do so, (set this in config) after changing view to ortho and then to perspective again it will just reset to default 45.. which is nightmare... I had made a script but i still need to click every time i change my view. Which is often. :poly127:

    I'm pretty sure you can set the default in max's viewport configuration window.

    Click the [+] in the viewport label (upper left) and choose configure viewport.

    OR if that doesn't work...
    You could add a change to perspective command to the FOV script and bind that new script to your perspective shortcut. That way every time you switch viewports the FOV will be set correctly.
    macroScript MyPers
    Category:" MyTools"
    toolTip:"MyPers"
    buttonText:"MyPers"
    
    
    (
    	max vpt persp user
    	viewport.SetFOV 60
    )
    
    Run the script once, and it will show up in Customize UI, bind it to whatever you want perspective to be.
