If you are like me and use a Wacom with 3ds max, you have definitely encountered this issue with selecting objects!

Scenario:
You select an object and it moves it!!!!!!!!!!!! this is no good!!

So what i wanted was to use Q to select an object, move it with W then go back to Q when deselected. So with some hardcore googling and experimenting i found a solution.

Behold the holy grail for all Wacom users!

Usage:
if max is opened, close it.
Copy the script to your scripts/startup folder
run max

or if max is opened.
Copy the script to your scripts/startup folder and then run the script.
Happy days.

To remove the script:
Run wacomholygrail.ms
Add this button to your toolbar and now you can turn the script on/off

If you have any issues or recommendations please hit me up. If you want to improve it, please do and let me know so i can re-upload for the community :)

Version Requirement: 
2018, might work on older versions
Other Software Required: 
3ds max

Thats strange because I use

Thats strange because I use this script on a daily basis and it works for me. Let me double check I uploaded the correct version and get back to you.

But just to confirm, copy with move+shift does work.

Update:
Re-uploaded it, try again and let me know :)
