weird max bug?

Saidin311

I'm working in max right now building some stones for a new prop. I made the objects and then exported them to .obj's and sculpted in mudbox and brought them back into max for assembly.

But the bug is now whenever I have one of these stones selected I can't Alt-W to switch between my views.

It works when I de-select the object. Has anyone encountered things like this? Is there a fix for it? I've tried resetting the pivots and xforms as well as saving different copies of the file and closing/reopening max.

It could be the keyboard short cut override is off or on? Look in the main button tray at the top for a single keyboard key with a T on it. Try toggling it on or off when you have those object selected.

Chances are when you're in Edit Poly mode those keyboard shortcuts are overriding the global Max settings.

Thanks Vig! That was exactly the problem. Not sure how it got toggled to anything different. But its working now!
