So I booted up 3ds max today for some experimenting. When I click on any of the tools like move, rotate, scale, or etc. none of the arrows to manipulate it show up. Or if I click the rotate tool, the spheres to rotate it don't show up.

Example:


Anyone know how to turn these back on?

If anyone has any helpful info, I'd greatly appreciate it. I can't search it because I don't know what they're called. Even the name of the those arrow/modifier things would be great.

Hahahahahaha, I ran into the same problem a while ago and was stumped for like 3 days. The solution is incredibly simple. Just tap the "x" key.

Happy modeling :P

:O

Hooray. Thanks a lot man. I had a feeling there was simple toggle that was missing. However, it just didn't turn this time.

Thanks again.

Yeah happened to me too, it's the "X" key, anytime theres something wrong with max, just hit every key on your keyboard, it will do/fix/**** up something =D
