Bounding Box

Post by Excal »

Hmph... I pressed some damn button while using 3ds max and now when I look around in the viewport, it shows the bounding box (surrounding/outlines) of the model. I don't know WHAT button I pressed, but it bothers the hell out of me. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Nono, its not wireframe. I know how to do wireframe/shaded wireframe etc. Let me get a pic, 1 sec.

EDIT: Here, the first pic is when I'm not moving around in the viewport.

This image is what I see when I move around in the viewport, without pressing any buttons except to move around in the viewport (middle mouse+alt buttons).

Anyone know what to do?

thats pretty harsh - he would have had to look very hard, and had a lot of luck to find that....

And I would be willing to bet that about 99% of all questions asked here have been anwsered before.

He would've seen the topic when the pictures did work, after all, he's a moderator.

Waverunner. There is almost never a new question asked. And it wasn't harsh.

People just need to look before asking, but nobody does.

I'm not going to waste an hour looking for a solution when I can get one by posting a new topic and get an answer in 15 minutes or less.

Is that not the purpose of these forums? I agree....
some people are just a little touchy....
