your script has a bug at max 2018 - here is the little fix

I just added the line Buttontext: to the function ( now the button text shows as expected )

macroScript Collect_asset_2
Buttontext: "Collect Asset"
category:"# Scripts"
toolTip:"Collect Aasset 2"
Icon:#("CollectAsset",1)

.....

Whoever is missing button text on max 2018, here is the solution. Just mouse over the empty button from toolbar, edit script, save. Go to original folder replace the file with the new one. Profit!

Enjoy! :)

Only one request

Only one request
1. Create a non-installable script
2. If it is difficult, rename the category. I hate that it is above the all command.

do not relinkar xrefs

Hello

Your script is very good.
We just feel we can not choose not to collect and relink the xrefs. We do not put them in the same texture folder.
Could this change be possible?
Thank you very much
