Move and rotate

Description

Hi all.

This is probably really simple to do.

I was wondering if someone could, or had made a script that shows the standard Move and Rotate windows together?

Seen as you can't open them together in max bacause the one window changes for Move, rotate and Scale.

What I'd really like is a script that shows the rotation, position and scale of two selected objects so you can copy and paste the values from one to another.

Has anyone scripted this? Or if someone fancies trying to script it, I'm sure a lot of people would use it!

Once again my maxscripting knowledge lets me down! I don't have time to give to learn at the moment.

I think that I have a tool like you want.Tha author is .... After few hours I will serach my HDD and if I find t I will post it here or will provide the link to the author site.

About the "script that shows the rotation, position and scale of two selected objects so you can copy and paste the values from one to another." I can write it, but why you don't use Align tool(Alt+A is the defoult hotkey)?

Thanks for the reply.

I use the laign tool all the time, but sometimes i want a relative rotation based on the current object rotation.

I wasn't aligning one object directly to another, just using one objects rotation to add to another?

Does that make sense?

If you find it, or fancy writing it, I'd appreciate it.

Cheers.

Is this mean - you have teapot rotated 40 deg by X axis and a box rotated 30 deg by X axis and you want to add the rotation of the box to the teapot, so the rotation of the teapot will be 40+30 deg by X axis?
