Very odd here. If I use the recorder it tells me that there is a property called limit how ever I can't access this even when running the line that was recorded. Using getPropNames doesn't return it either. I need a solution for turning this on, any one have anything down and dirty?

Would be using a Vol.Select below the Taper an option?

No that doesn't work very well, but thanks. I tried it with a taper modifier and it was getting slow and other things that I need to get it to do just don't work well. This is a real pain.

I need to control the taper axis information as well and that also isn't accessible. Any one please?

I might have to write a geometry plugin for it if I can't get this to work. Darned if I know how do make geometry follow a path at this point how ever.

I hope you're logging this as a feature request with Adesk, there's more off these missing mxs access in Max.

$.modifiers[#Taper].limit = off works for me in 2010 if that's the version you're in..

Looks like you are using a taper modifier not the taper space warp. Is this the case?
