Hi there! I have used Maya for two years now but I am now having to move over to Blender. As I have been teaching myself Blender I can't seem to get used to the gesture-based movement system. I know Blender has the Gizmo tools and I have set the tools to the corresponding hotkeys for the gesture-based movements and…
Good old times - Max 8 Select faces + Flatten Mapping = All the selected faces are mapped AND still selected so you can move them around instantly. Bad new times - Max 2010 Select faces + Flatten Mapping = All the selected faces are mapped BUT only the last mapped face is selected. So you have you re-select all to move…
Hi, It's so time consuming that i can't select elements by making marquee selections in maya. Does anyone have script which turns on element selection mode?

HelloI have a problem, i want to get a selection of "outer edges" of any mesh (See picture below). Im using the CreaseSet modifier in 3ds max (2017) for this (with default settings).

I can select what I want from the object…

The issue I am having is that at first run the array is set up fine, but when you…
The selection of whatever faces I have selected in the UV Editor carries over to Edit Poly no problem, but I can't seem to find a way to get edge or vert selection to carry over, does anyone know of a way? It's simple enough to select the boarders of UV shells in the 3dsmax editor window, bind Open Edge Mode or Open Edge…

Hello, I'm working with some curves I've created using xgen and I'm running into an issue where maya is only letting me convert the curves I've elected to control vertexes one at a time. It's a major pain to have to keep right clicking control vertex in the menu so I can edit them all at once. Any ideas as to why this is…

Add/Subtract selection: in max its ctrl/alt and maya its shift/ctrl respectively. in max, since…
