instanceTrimmer
Submitted by Neil Blevins on Thu, 2008-05-22 06:00.Takes a selection and reduces the selection to include only a single instance from each set of instances.
Tutorial:
Make a sphere and instance it once. Make a 3rd sphere, copy it once. Select all 4 spheres. Run the script in UI mode. Hit Do. Now your 3rd, 4th and either the 1st or 2nd sphere is selected.
selectionHighlighter
Submitted by Neil Blevins on Thu, 2008-02-21 05:49.This script simulates the Selection Highlighting mode from Silo in max. The idea is if you hover over an object, the object is selected, if you hover over a vertex, it selects the vertex, if you hover over an edge, the edge is selected, etc. No need for extra mouseclicks. Autodesk has half added this feature, this script goes all the way to adding full silo style selection highlighting. Note: This only works in max 2008.

AlignViewToFace
Submitted by Rivendale on Fri, 2006-10-20 19:45.Aligns the perspective view to the face that is under the mouse while keeping the distance to the selected object (the distance will pretty much the same as between the view and the face to align to). It does not matter if the object has modifiers applied and the view will not be distorted into some strange rotation but kept aligned to the world axis.
