basic 3ds max question
polycounter lvl 5
Hello,
often I struggle with the 3ds max snap option.
For example:
When I use snaps and I want to align eg. a vertex to the grid, I need to zoom in a lot so I can see the vertex and the gridline clearly. but then the gizmo is out of screen, so I cannot use the gizmo anymore.
Sure I can use the working pivot point, but that's so much extra work...
Also in the example above, if I want to align an object to the grid and the gizmo itself is off-grid, then it is not possible to align the vertex to the grid anymore (this happens when multiple vertex are selected)
I was using blender for some time and there it was solved so easily... press control and the object snaps to the grid (even in perspective view) and then there was an option that allowed to set "selected to grid".
Is there a way in max to avoid this issue?
Thanks for help!
