[Closed] Inheritance Flags and Aligning

I bumped into this problem recently, but I haven’t found a solution that works.

I’m making an animated align tool. (To align FK to IK over the active time range.) Sometimes animators want to disable rotation inheritance while they are working. And that’s where this problem pops up.

If I disable inherit rotation on an object I can no longer align by setting the transform. The Align Tool in max still works, but I can’t find a way to align with only MaxScript.

In the example below Box02 doesn’t align to Box 04. Anyone have any ideas I can do to align an object with inherit rotation turned off?

Thanks in advance by the way!

(
	--CREATE SOME TEMP BOXES
	delete Objects

	Box01 = Box pos:[0,0,0]
	Box02 = Box pos:[30,0,0]
	Box03 = Box pos:[-30,0,0]
	Box04 = Box pos:[-60,0,0]
	
	--PARENT THE BOXES TO THE FIRST BOX
	Box02.parent = Box01
	Box03.parent = Box01
	
	--TURN OFF INHERIT ROTATION
	setInheritanceFlags Box02 #{1..3,7..9}
	
	--NEED TO DRAW THE VIEW OR THE INHERIT FLAGS ARE NOT SET
	max views redraw
	
	--ROTATE THE FIRST BOX
	rotate Box01 (angleaxis 45 [0,0,1])

	--ALIGN THE BOXES
	Box03.transform = Box04.transform
	Box02.transform =  Box04.transform
