Copy/Paste Position Toolset

This is a set of scripts that lets you instantly copy the positions of selected objects/components and paste them to a different selection. It comes in the form of three macroscripts which you can set to hotkeys; one for copying positions, one for pasting positions, and one that opens up a floating user interface for changing options and settings.





The user interface allows you to choose many things, including:

* Whether to use world or object coordinates.

* Which axis (X/Y/Z) to allow or disallow paste to modify on the selection

* Which axis and in which value to snap selection to (if any)

* Modes, such as paste the copied position center (via average/bounds), or...

* Paste the copied position(s) which are closest/farthest to the selection, or...

* Paste random copied positions, or...

* Copy/Instance selected objects to all copied positions, or...

* Paste positions with matching indexs (for morph targets)

* Objects/Pivots can be set to align to the copied positions normals





The script supports copying and pasting from:

* Editable Poly, Editable Mesh, Editable Spline, Edit Poly, Unwrap UVW.

* Copying positions from polygon verts/edges/faces, UV verts/edges/faces, spline knots/segments, and objects (aka. nodes)

* Pasting positions to polygon verts, UV verts, spline knots, objects, and pivots / working pivot.





It has been tested to work with 3DSMax 2012-2019. It may also work with older/newer versions as well but has not been tested on them.
