"Suspend motion" autocheks in 3ds max

Post by **ngomes** » Wed Jun 20, 2007 2:55 am

Hi sorin,

if you make a smaller floater with just on/off indication i could keep it open all times. or make a macro button i could drag to a toolbar.

It is not feasible for us to develop a new panel to debug a particular issue when one already exists.

you are very funny.
someone offers to help and you refuse it. then fix it yourself, like you should have done in the first place.

or open source it, i'm sure it'll be fixed in a week or so.

or have a bundle with a 19" display for free

To be serious, the latest release seems very stable to me with a very very low frequency of autocheks. Cheers to the developers fao fixing that.

rare indeed but it still happens.

well if they don't want help...
actually i'll have this thread forwarded and see how many people laugh at tech support ngomes is providing.

We very much value your input. In no way I wanted to give the impression that your help was unappreciated.

There is already a panel that provides the feedback you are asking. For debug purposes it is adequate but, granted, not ideal due to its size.

A lot of the 3Dconnexion people you see replying on this Forum are developers, not technical support. You have a channel to make your point and, if you can provide a reproducible scenario, we will take it on.

I found one !!! The 'Import' dialog : just open it and close it doing nothing between opening and closing. That autochecks the 'suspend motion'. The 'Open' and 'Fusion' dialogs don't autocheck.

That hidden feature will really help me because it much more quicker that going to the utilities panel, open 3DxStudio panel, check the radio and close the panel. JUST KIDDING TOO !!!

Hi mushimas,

Great, thank you! I have added the description of how to reproduce the issue to the bugzilla case.
The fix will be available in release ca. september.
