As 3dsmax animator, i wrote this little macroscript to control the value of the Origin Scale in trackview. I lose too much time to grab the orange line that define the keys scale origin in the 3dsmax trackview.
So I want to share this with 3dsmax animators :
macroScript SetOriginScale category: “_ arno _” toolTip: “OrSc”
(
try (destroyDialog OriginScale) catch()
rollout OriginScale “OriginScale” width:130 height:80
(
button btn_place “Set origin Scale” pos:[25,40] width:80 height:25
spinner spn_origin “Value” pos:[10,10] width:100 height:16 range:[-100000,100000,0.1]
on btn_place pressed do
(
trackviews.current.scaleValuesOrigin = spn_origin.value
)
)
createdialog OriginScale pos:[100,100]
)

Great tool… thank you very much for sharing it.
=)
It will be perfect if the macroscript could store the value of a selected key in the value spinner to snap the orange line. I don’t know how to do that. So I select de key value and copy/paste it in the macroscript value spinner

Depends on the current frame position is it possible to choose the transform and axis a snap the origin line.
