In this video, we will see how we can create our own construction plane,
close to the UCS thing in AutoCad. We will learn also how we can place a construction plane on top of a specific face so that this face's orientation will be the custom construction plane's orientation. In the end, will we learn how we can use this custom grid as a handy modeling aid in complex geometry. Also in this last section, we will deal with the problem when you try to use the Auto Grid on a Polygon that shares the same smoothing group with an adjacent face.

This script attempts to fix shapes that will not extrude because they contain multiple splines with coincident verts. This is sometimes the case with imported shapes. Script inspired by a MAXForum post by Scott Dickison to fix imported DXF shapes from ARC/INFO.

    Load UVW channel map

    I've seen a lot of issues with scripting the saving and loading of UVW data via script. I ran into a problem like that myself and throught I'd share my solution. Basically the loading and saving of UVW maps is not exposed fully via script, only the dialog opens, so you need to fake inserting the file path and hit the load button.
