Position measure keeps its scope narrow: one script, one job. It earns a spot in the ScriptSpot library as a straightforward distance readout for object and vertex pairs in 3ds Max, with results shown right in the prompt line.
Position measure is a distance-measuring script for 3ds Max, written by Chuggnut. Select two objects and it returns the distance between them. With a single object selected, it instead measures the distance between two of that object's vertices. Which measurement runs depends on the selection you have active.
Each result is reported in the prompt line, keeping the readout inside the 3ds Max interface. Position measure is a small, single-task utility rather than a full measuring suite, and it is offered here at version 2.3.5.
The script is catalogued in the ScriptSpot library and comes from Chuggnut. It is listed as a free download. For the current release and any accompanying details, the developer's page at chuggnut.com is the place to look.
Position measure is best for 3ds Max users who need a quick distance readout between two objects or between two vertices on a single object.
Position measure is completely free to download and use.
Position measure handles both cases. When you have two objects selected, it measures the distance between those two objects. When you have a single object selected, it switches to measuring the distance between two vertices on that object. The behaviour follows your selection, so the same script covers object-to-object spacing and vertex-to-vertex spacing without a separate command. In each case the measured value is reported in the 3ds Max prompt line for you to read.
Position measure writes its results to the prompt line in 3ds Max. After you make a selection and run the script, the measured distance appears there for you to read. Keeping the readout in the prompt line means the value shows up within the standard 3ds Max interface as you work. This applies whether Position measure is measuring between two objects or between two vertices of a single selected object.
Position measure is listed here as a free download, and the version catalogued is 2.3.5. For current licensing terms and to confirm the latest release, the developer's page at chuggnut.com is the best reference, since terms can change over time. The script comes from Chuggnut and is filed in the ScriptSpot library, where it sits as a compact utility for measuring distances in 3ds Max between objects or vertices.
