Max's Spinner Precision Reverts back to 2 Decimal Places

[olly]

I have a little problem that has been irritating me for a while now, I have decided to post it here to see if anyone can help.

PROBLEM:
When I set my Spinner Precision to 3 decimal places (Customise>Preferences>General Tab) it reverts back to the default of 2 after I restart max.

I only noticed this because the VRAY default QMC Sampler's Noise Threshold value of 0.005 is rounded down to 0.0 when the Spinner Precision is set to 2 decimal places.

Is anyone else having this problem? Or does anyone know how to change the default to 3? Or is the value still 0.005 but merely displayed as 0.0?

Thanks in advance for any help on this one...

Well, I'm very new with 3dmax and I had the very same problem. I just did what you do!

Customize/Preferences/General Tab/Spinners/Precision decimals=4

And that works.

Should work for you.

CarlosBZ,

Doesn't yours reset back to 2 after you close and re-open max? Because that's the problem I'm having. Let me know...

Initially yeah but after I fix on Customize... end of history, problem is over.

The answer is no, it didn't reset to two it stayed in 4 once I set in 4. I wonder if your customization files are read only looked...
