Max/GMax - "Named Selection Sets"

[Fr. Bill]

[color=#000000]Today I finally got around to learning about the "Named Selection Set" feature of Max/GMax...

OMG! I sure wish I'd taken the time to learn this years ago, since it very neatly solves any number of management issues in one fell swoop...

Named sets are a great tool... i would also suggest for those using 3DsMax, the layers tool

it's essentially a selection grouping tool, like the named sets, but it has some more features, like being able to turn a layer invisible and stuff like that

once you add an object to a layer, it will share the common properties of that layer along with all other objects, but it won't be linked to them, as it would if you were using groups... it's just there to organize your objects

Cheers
