I am doing the "Modeling a Low-Polygon Character" tutorial that came with 3D Studio Max.

It is telling me this:

In the Top viewport, scale down the X and Y axes. To scale the X and Y axes together, drag downward on the triangle in the center of the Transform gizmo, which turns yellow when you position the mouse cursor over it. You can also scale on individual axes by dragging the outer section of the triangle on the Transform gizmo in different directions.

I get what that means so I start at the top and the little triangle appears (the scalling) so I drag it halfway in the squar because it tells me to drag it to the transform gizmo and it doesn't turn yellow when I move the mouse over it? so I don't know if I am doing it correctly.. any ideas.. help is very apriciated..

You may have pushed the X key, which will turn off your transform gizmo and leave you with just an axis pointer.
