Copy Object Properties

Dave Stewart — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 21:53:05 +0000

A quad-menu shortcut to quickly copy properties from another object. Currently works on base-object properties, but at some point I may update it to work with modifiers.

Works on multiple selections, and attempts all property names, so you can do things like update the radii of spheres from cones, for example.

Interface

Download and Installation

Download and run Copy Object Properties.ms from 3dsmax.

It will create the macroscript in the correct directory for your max version, then you can add the script to a toolbar by going to:

Customize > Customize User Interface…
and looking under the Tools category for Copy Object Properties.
