Aligns the viewport to the selected face. Thanks to Carl-Mikael Lagnecrantz for some code inspiration.

Tutorial:
Select an editable poly object, select a face, run the script. Now you have a new view perpendicular to that face.

Stevie Ray Vaughn? No - it's Save/Restore Views (sorry - blues fans!)! Lets you store any perspective or user view and recall it at any time. Stored views are saved with the scene.

QuickMaximize

Okay - so there's already a shortcut to maximize the active viewport. But not to maximize whatever viewport happens to be under the mouse...at least not until now! Migratory Maya users should find this one comforting.

Viewport Grabber

This script lets you grab the currently active Viewport and save the images. You can set a timer to grab sequences - or turn on AutoGrab - which will grab the viewport every time you change something.

Copy Viewport to Clipboard

Simply copies your selected viewport to the clipboard. Great for quickly getting a viewport grab into photoshop - or if bandwidth doesn't matter - getting an uncompressed image pasted into your email client.

maxCapture

Created for creation of screen captures for instructional tutorials - etc. Captures the current viewport in max - saves it as a sequentially named .bmp file. Creates a new .bmp every time you click the button. Saves the files as: 0001.bmp - 0002.bmp - 0003.bmp - etc. A thumbnail of each saved image is displayed in the control. Controls minimal to save screen space.

Viewport BG Switcher

A little interface for loading images and setting them as viewport backgrounds. Hit 'Load' to add images - and 'Remove' to remove them. 'Apply' sets an image as the viewport background - 'View' lets you view the image - and 'Dialog' brings up the max background dialog. The list of images does not save with the scene in max7 unfortunately.
