Need a small feature if possible...

I love this script and use it all the time..

Thanks..

I was just wondering if a feature could be added.. to """minimize""" the script in max..
Currently there is only the close script available..

Thanks in advance..

Cheers!

Doesn't work with groups

Please mind that it only works for single objects. If you have something grouped, this plugin completely ignores the grouping and rotates each element of the group on a different axis.

Fantastic little script

I know I am a little late to the table, but I have been rotating my plants manually for years without really thinking about it - what a waste of time. I am working on a huge project with thousands of trees and with one click I rotated and moved with this script. Thank you!

Thanks.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I'll make a macro version of it so you can place it in the toolbar.

fajar - Essentially do you want something that would allow you to save and load presets?
