PROBLEM: This is in MAX 2008. My viewport camera wont rotate/orbit around the selected sub-object when I have selected a vetex/edge/face in Unwrap UVW. Instead the viewport camera rotates/orbits around the center of the object in stead of rotating around the selected subobject. DETAILS: Work recently switched us from MAX…
True but that's why in photoshop you use the magic wand tool select in an empty space then ctrl+shift+I to invert that selection so it's got the border of all you objects then you go to select>modify>expand and up the selection by like 5 pixels then when you create a new border select black and hit alt+backspace to fill…

I did something similar with Barycentric Coordinates to find crevices: ( from an object selection the script selects all the edges that make up crevices ) or the opposite ( depending on whether I wanted a hill or a valley ). select object> run…

Usually I add all the function by hand inside the custom attributes but I started to learn about FileIn() that seem really usefull to me.…

What I'm seeing in max8 though, is that after selecting the polys and going into unwrap, I cannot modify the UV's if I go from vertex to poly selection in the unwrap UI. The…
