Noob question about selection constraint

Anonymous — Sun, 23 Apr 2017 16:25:03 GMT

Hello guys,

I was wondering if, like in Maya, it was possible to make some selection constraints.

I mean, for instance in Maya, if you select a start and end edge while double clicking, it will select all the edges between those strat/end edges.

In max I always deal with entire loop of edges, which is kind of annoying while working with a lot of polys and deselecting unneeded eges slow my workflow af.

I tried to find the answer online but I found nothing

Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance

hi friend i have checked there is no such option but there are many plugins or free scripts that can do such work or you have to select that manually..thanks

Nevermind, I just found what I was looking for.

For those who are interessted check out the miauu's MaxScript vol.2, there is a script called Smart Sub-Object selection, whichis pretty powerful.

Cheers,
