• Shaded—When on, the cage is shaded with
atransparentgray. Whenoff,thecageis
displayed a s a blue lattice. Default=off.
The Shaded option can be useful when you
need to tell whether or not high-resolution
source geometry is within the cage, and w hen
youneedtoexpandthecagetoincludemore
geometry.
•
Point t o Poi nt—When on, additional lines
connect vertices in the cage to points on the
target object, show ing how the projection will
be done. Default=off.
Push group
These controls let you adjust the size of the cage
as a whole, or on a sub-object selection if one is
currently chosen (see
Reference Geometry Rollout
(Project ion Modifier) (page 1–763)
).
Amount—Changetoadjustthesizeofthecage
in 3ds Max units. Positive va lues increase the
size of the c age; negative values decrease the size.
Default=0.0.
Percent—Changetoadjustthesizeofthecage
as a percentage. Positive va lues increase the size
of the cage; negative va lues decrease the size.
Default=0.0.
Auto-Wrap group
By default, the Projection modifier automatically

cage doesn’t change unless you change the settings
in this group or the Push group, or if you manually
adjustcageverticesattheCagesub-objectlevel.
Tolerance—Thedistancein3dsMaxunits,
between the cage and the target geometry. Positive
values are outside the high-res source geometry;
negative values are inside the source geometry.
Default=varies, dependi ng on the geometry.
Alway s Update—When on, the cage expands
around high-res geometry as it is added to the
list (see
Reference Geometry Rollout (Projection
Modifier) (page 1–763)
). When off, the initial cage
is not updated automatically. Default=on.
Update—Click to update the c age. This is most
useful w hen you have turned off Always Update.
Reset—Click to reset the cage to a wrapping
that is the same size as the low-resolution target
geometry.
