3ds Max :: Save Custom Modifier Sets For Future Use?
Jan 23, 2012
I have never figured out a way to save my customized Modifier Sets. Whenever I have to reinstall Max or we get a new release I lose a lot of customization. I'd like to be able to save every singe interface tweak to make to carry forward to new releases.
3ds Max Design (3D Studio thru Max 2014), ASUS P9X79 Motherboard,
Intel i7-3960x, Hydro H80 CPU Chiller, 32GB DDR3 Ram,
Quadro 4000 Display Adapter
I don't know how or when this happened, but i lost almost all my default Modifier Sets.Reverting/Resetting the whole GUI didnd't work at all.How can i get them back, without reinstalling Max?
is there any way to save modified shortcut keys in a file that can be restored and used after full formatting of hard disk. this will save a lot of time for me
I am trying to create a single layout with title blockandviewport to save as a template for future. Right clicking on the layout tab does not produce the menu.
I create a new layout by selecting page set up manager in the file menu, create a new layout, but the tab does not show up at the bottom.
I am trying to apply shell modifier on a custom made spline (shown as 1 in image).But as soon as I click on shell modifier the spline disappears. I dont understand what is happening because I applied shell modifier on a similar custom made spline and it work properly previously (shown as 2 in image).
Is it possible to combine several custom shapes stes in to one set? Because i have a lot custom shapes sets and instead of seeking a shape that i need in different sets, i want to combine some of them.
I recently downloaded several custom shape sets from DeviantArt. I was using them all fine for about a week, however today when I started up Photoshop (I'm using CS5) the shape sets I imported had disappeared from the list. All default shape sets are still there, and in the custom shapes source folder all are there including my downloads.
I have tried taking the files out and putting them back in the folder, opening and closing photoshop and restarting my machine, but they won't reappear. The only thing that happened yesterday was that Adobe made an apparently unsuccessful attempt to update Flash.how I can get the shapes to reappear?
I just sat down to use 3Ds Max '12 for the first time today after upgrading from 2010. This will probably be a simple fix, but I can't get any text to cap with the extrude modifier or bevel modifier. It happens with every typeface I've tried. I even tried using the cap holes modifier. Never had this problem with previous version of 3Ds.
Is there a way to save a custom artboard setup with a custom document profile in illustrator cs5? I do technical illustrations and our page size is odd (7.19 x 8.96. It the size that our Framemaker layout is set to.). I have a custom document profile that I use, but I use the grids all the time so that my callouts are spaced out evenly around the art. I would like to have a way to set the artboard up so that the grid will align to the center of the artboard everytime I turn them on. Right now they always start from the top left and when I center art in the center of the page, the grid spacing isn't the same on each side of the art. I just want to be able to open my document profile, turn on my grids, have them start from the center, and I can get down to business. As it is now I have to go into my artboard settings and manually adjust the grid to the center. Small annoyance, but it still annoys me. I have tried to save it a few different ways, but nothing has worked. Maybe there just isn't a way.
How do I go about backing up the following before I install the Illustrator CS5 HTML5 Pack with Illustrator?: 15.0.1
Backup the following files: (restoration of these files are required for any future update) <Install>Adobe Illustrator CS5Plug-insExtensions Art Style.aip <Install>Adobe Illustrator CS5Plug-insExtensions CharParaStyles.aip <Install>Adobe Illustrator CS5Plug-insExtensions Layers Panel.aip <Install>Adobe Illustrator CS5Plug-insIllustrator Formats SVG File Format. aip <Install>Adobe Illustrator CS5Support Files ContentsWindowsSVGExport.dll
I just wanted to copy the file and put them in a new folder as backup. Will this be suficient or do I have to do something entirely different to back up these files? If so, I am uncertain how I would go about it if it includes the whole file location name as indicated above.
I work with virtual shoe samples made in Photoshop. I draw shoes in PS and make thousands of combinations of materials in colors, which mean thousands of layers as well.
I have then various sets of layers, each one a different combination, and many times I want to go back to a combination I used before; that is, make every layer of it visible again, something that takes lots of time when you have thousands of layers.
Every file is 300 MB, so I have no chance to save it again with that combination I need.
Basically, I need to find a way to save which layers are visible and invisible!
What are the rules for how elements (specifically, collections and other collection sets) are ordered within a collection set?
I was trying to get a collection to appear at the top of the list of items in a collection set, but it seems to get stuffed below all the other collection sets regardless of the name given to the collection.
PS CC won't save a custom workspace. Nothing happens. In addition, I get a "Can't apply workspace because of a system error" when i try to view the What's New workspace. Just downloaded the CC today. Mac 10.7.5, 3.4 GHz processor, 16GB RAM.
How do you go about saving a custom color profile in CS6? Gone is the save button after you have created the custom profile. In my case I want to save a custom Adobe RGB profile with a gamma of 1.0 instead of the usual 2.2. I can create it easy enough in the custom dialog box, but haven't figured out how to save it.
how to save a custom workspace in previous versions does not exist in Illustrator CC. Has this option been reconfigured or simply forgotten? I'm using a Trial Version.
in Photoshop Extended (CS6), when I set a custom measurement scale and save/close the file, the scale information is not retained after the file is reopenend. I have experimented with both .psd and .tif files. I used to be able to do this in CS3 without any trouble!
I have changed the crop shortcut to ctrl + >, and it works fine until i restart!when i check the shortcut i previously changed, it is now ctrl+&???Why?????I used to have this same shortcuts since cs4.(PS 64bits, latin keyboard)
Using PSE 11, I get the panels set up the way I want, and the background that shows behind the document white like I want, and all is well. Until the comptuer loses it and I have to redo it all over. How can I get it to save my choices for these things? It also lost all my preferences that I set.
I have polyline that graphically represents a pipe. Obviously, the polyline can not contain data for a pipe: size, material, insulationtype, insulationthickness, schedule, etc. So, I have created a custom object with all of the appropriate properties, methods, events, etc that I need for it to behave as a pipe. My custom object has a reference to the actual polyline with a Handle property stored as a long(since AutoCAD objects can not be serialized). I referenced an AU 2008 class by Jeffery Geer (A Pattern for Storing Structured Data in AutoCAD Entities CP401-2) to get me as far as I am.
My object is marked serializable. I serialize it to binary and attach the binary in 127 byte chunks to the xRecord of the polyline object.However, as soon as I attach this binary xrecord, I get the following message when I try to save the drawing:
"One or more objects in this drawing cannot be saved to the specified format. The operation was not completed and no file was created”
how can save my custom menu to cuix file after creating it by vba using ThisDrawing.Application.MenuGroups.Item(0) and if i can create new cuix file "AMRCuix" and every time i will load it.
I'm trying to see if there is a shortcut or way to save my images to the size I want on the SAVE FOR WEB feature
For faster downloads I like to shrink my images to to 800 X 600 - so once I'm done editing them I hit "Save for Web" and then input those figures manually.
Now is there a way to program my Save for Web command so the images are automatically resized to 800 X 600 ? This would save me one step and speed up my work.
