Ahh, yes. It works.
Thank you. Been using 3ds Max for a long time, and still doesn't know some basic function, pretty embarrassing

In fact i make a copy of objects and reset xform them. But then the resulting normals are wrong on an original not reset object. So i should maybe do smthing about it. Normals are dependent of the object transforms, and basically you should always reset before editing them.
