Max 5.0 Pivots WTF???

[LFShade]

Check the state of the "use pivot point center" button on the main toolbar (to the right of the coordsys dropdown). It can be set per transform mode, so it's probably set differently for move, rotate, and scale in your scene.

Yeah what LFShade says, and also it remembers sub-object mode from ordinary transforms just to add to the fun, so that's pos, rot, scale times two :)

It is a very very cool part of MAX though I think. I find myself using them, and the various World, Local, Pick axis-alignments, all the time.

It seems to most eratic when working on really heavy scenes. As though the pivot info doesn't update immediately.
