Problem basically detailed in the title. Trying to extrude a face in 3DS Max, so I have my selection set to "faces", obviously. But as soon as I click on the face I want to extude, my selection mode changes to "edges". Same thing happens when I try to select verts. What's going on, please? Have I just hit some hotkey…
Heya, So I was trying to figure this out by googling a lot of stuff but no luck :( This USED to work great before for me, but all of a sudden it started behaving like this, so must be some setting I've accidentally turned on I think. So I go into Lattice Point component mode, I want to do a drag selection over the lattice…
Hi guys, I am ashamed but I really need some help : in Maya, I can no longer select multiple egdes or vertices. I must have turned some region selection tool by mistake and now each time I select an edge all the object turn from yellow to red and I can region transform it. But there is no way to select multiple edges…
Hey guys. I switched to max 18 and the button Q does not what I want and what I am used to from odler versions of max. I want Q to be the selection tool and "deactivate" tools like move, rotate or scale. I want Q to be the rectangular selection only and set Q as a hotkey for that. However, that does not work. Could you…
Ok, I'm cleaning up some folks work, there's a model with lets say about 20 different textures on 80 or so different objects.

Right click Go down quad menu to SelectFaceByNumber Put 1647 into a box. hit OK then that face would be selected in Max sub-object face selection. For right now I think that would work. Dual use of vert and…
Hi Polycount, I am currently in the process of switching to Maya. A lot is beginning to click, but I have one specific question I can't find answers to online: when selecting components (verts, edges or faces) If I click on another object it will begin selecting on that object too. I never really want that. Is there some…
Hi guys, recently when unwrapping my model in Maya I've come across this issue - when I select any part of my model's unwrap in the UV texture editor, it hides all the other parts of the unwrap. Does anyone know what's going on? Here're two images to illustrate what I'm experiencing (Unselected) (Selected, UVs disappear in…
In maya 2016 when selecting polygons preselection highlights works fine. But after last update it seems like there is some blind spot. How to fix that?
Hey there guys ! I have a very poly heavy scene and i'm trying to select all the small edges and collapse them. This is the line of code i'm using to select the small edges : polySelectConstraint -m 3 -t 0x8000 -l on -lb 0.1 0.13; Although all the edges i'm trying to select are around 0.12 units maya won't allow me to…
