3D MAX Tutorials - Basic Buttons in 3D MAX

The Top Bar

The top bar of buttons that you see is divided into two sections. The first section includes buttons for Undo/Redo, and the basic Transformation buttons, move, rotate and scale. In addition, there is a set that allows you to restrict your movement in the view windows. If say you only want to be moving something in the X dimension, then you can restrict your movement with the button above. The Second set to the right is composed of a series of buttons that will let you bring up more complicated dial og windows. For the moment, just know that this is the section where you would go to fine tune your animation, or to assign that spiffy new circuitry mesh texture to the ball in your scene. The buttons for Rendering your scene are also located here.
