Hello,

I have problem with my rotation in 3dsMax. I can rotate thing with the numerical input, but not with the gizmo if I click on a specific axis. I can rotate fine with the gizmo if I click on the middle of the gizmo in all axis mode but if I try to click on one of the axis of the rotation gizmo, nothing hapen.

So if I want to rotate on the x axis only, I have to use the numerical input box because that darn gizmo does not work. I can only use the gizmo for the freeform rotation, not the constrain one. any idea what's going on?

thanks

Simple method :

Close Max,
Remove your "3dsmax\3dsmax.ini" file
Restart

Complicated method (If you don't want to loose the 3dsmax.ini file infos)
edit the file and find what's wrong :)

here are some value about rotation in my 3dsmax.ini file :

RotateGizmoDoFreeRotate=1
RotateGizmoUseScreenHandle=1
RotationMode=2
RotationModeShowPieSlice=1
RotationModeShowMiniTripod=1
RotationModeShowAngleData=1
RotationPlanarThreshold=10,000000
RotUseSelSet=2
[RotationIncrement]
Amount=0,500000
