Hi everyone, I'm just coming back to rigging with Max, having been using Maya for a year or so and I'm doing some wiring of a controller attribute to the scale on a bone (Which is parented to a helper so thats in parent space its translations and rotates are zeroed). What I want to know, is is it possible to get the expression when I'm wiring to specifically use 'Parent' Space or 'World' space or any of the others? I'm hoping that there is just some simple flag I can put on, but as of yet I havent found it!

Any tips would be cool!

I believe "set coordsys world" would work. Look up "coordsys" in the maxscript help file.
