3ds max inset orientation

Cptmcquacken

When you use the inset function in 3ds max it seems the vertices kind of all do what they want going in unsavory directions.

Is there a setting to orient the vertices to move toward a central point?

I'm trying to create a uniform set of concentric circles to create what looks like the rubber rings on a subwoofer.

I know you can do this other ways im just curious to know if inset can be used the same way.

No, inset isn't designed to work that way. Inset basically determines the direction inset verts move by generating a matrix from averaging the normalized parallel edges for its side-to-side angle, and the selected faces edges (including the hidden ones) for the the relative up/down angle.

I usually collapse the face to a vertex and then chamfer it if I want a circle in situations like that
