Re: Maya Modeling questions coming from Max
The bonus tools (an "official" plugin) have an xray selected objects option, under the display menu.

Re: Maya Modeling questions coming from Max
if you're wanting to move two verts equally at the same time I would suggest moving the edge instead with Mesh Tools > Slide Edge with the Absolute setting. I'm assuming you know you can scale across 2 axes simultaneously, so you must want to scale two loops that aren't aligned to the same axis. In that case you might be…
