You do, especially in production, when you have to create and test a bunch of modular assets set up with the power of 2.We had inhouse scripts with mel script, I was just looking for something similar with maxsxript. A menu or toolbar script would be fine. The UE4 Viewport was just an example.
@Gustavo_Elliott Thx for your answer, but I think we're talking at cross purposes here. :) At "1:32 min" f.e you always have to type in the grid spacing manually - im looking for a script with a menu: buttons or drop down and predefinied templates like 25 cm, 50 cm etc. This would fasten your workflow - UE4 provides this…
I mean you can set a hotkey to open the snap menu if having it open bothers you... I don't think your wasting time by typing in your snap value but if you wanna take the time to write a script, if sure you could, but I don't think you could have it as a viewport button like ue4
