CHAPTER 1 GettinG to Know 3ds Max desiGn 2010
You’ve just created your first object in 3ds Max, and in the process, you’ve seen how the
dimensions of an object are reflected in the Parameters rollout. Once you’ve created an object,
you can continue to modify its parameters, as the following exercise demonstrates.
1. In the Parameters rollout, locate the Width input box and click the up arrow to the right
of the box several times. Arrows like this one are called spinners, and they allow you
to graphically adjust the value of the associated input box. Notice that the box in the
Perspective viewport begins to widen as the value in the Width input box increases.
