AutoHotkey Community

Am looking for some kind of script that will take over Max strange way of steering and replace it with the way you steer in Maya.

I used to Work in maya and haw started to use Max more and more, but
its hard to get a nice workflow with 2 diffrent way of steering.

I want to Convert:
Ctrl + Alt + MMB To Alt + RMB
Ctrl + MMB To Alt + MMB
Alt + MMB To Alt + Lmb

I haw tryed you skript and cant get shift-lmb to function as mmb.
And what do the "a" tagent?

I think that i can work this around, but how does i isolate the keys ondly to Max?
am a totaly noob to coding

This is what a want to do, the ondly one that works are Rotate.
What are im doing wrong? Please help me

;Rotate "Works"
;alt-LMB to function as alt-MMB
!LButton::
if WinActive("ahk_class 3DSMAX")
Send, !{MButton down}
return
!LButton up:: Send, !{MButton up}

;Pan
;alt-MMB to function as MMB
!MButton::
if WinActive("ahk_class 3DSMAX")
Send, {MButton down}
return
!MButton up:: Send, {MButton up}

;Zoom
;alt-RMB to function as alt-ctrl-MMB
!RButton::
if WinActive("ahk_class 3DSMAX")
Send, !^{MButton up}
return
!RButton up:: Send, !^{MButton up}

I think you need to put a $ symbol in front of those two non-functioning hotkeys since they are triggered by and send the MMB.

Take a look in the manual at "hotkey basics" in the index tab and it gives more explanation of the $ prefix and others.

Thanks

Do i need to haw a UseHook?

Is this how you meant?

;Pan
;alt-MMB to function as MMB
$!MButton::
if WinActive("ahk_class 3DSMAX")
{
Send, {MButton down}
return
$!MButton up:: Send, {MButton up}
}

I still dont get the skript to work

You should certainly try adding #InstallKeybdHook to the beginning of your script. And yes, that's the correct placement for the $ symbol.

I just noticed that the line:

...won't get executed since it is after your Return. Try putting the Return after that line instead of before it. Also once the hotkey has been clicked once, it will stay active. You have to use the other hotkey method if you want to enable and disable hotkeys under certain conditions.

Do you haw a soution for enable and disable hotkeys under certain conditions? Due to my bad code knowledge i dont realy now what to do.

Am realy grateful for help

[edit - see below]

Does your existing code work now? Turning on and off the hotkey shouldn't make much difference to whether it works or not, just that it won't trigger at times when you might not want it.



So you would use something like:


If your code's not working, try to be more specific about what happens - I don't have the program to test it out.


Edit: I'm pretty sure it's not working as I was trying it out in internet explorer. Sorry I'm not sure why exatly. Best thing to do is start a new thread in the help forum so it gets more attention.

This was what I tried last for alt and middle button:

ok, i will do that.

Thanks for the tip

could you maybe post your solution for this. i have the exact same problems with remapping my mouse for 3ds max.

thank you

It will probably need to be tweaked for the latest version of 3dsmax:

Hi!
I'm trying to change Kahz script to make navigation in 3ds max more like a Modo.
The only change i need to do is to set Alt+Shift+LButton for pan.
But when i change +LButton:: to !+LButton:: it stops working at all!
Please help me!
