3dsmax 2018 vray render menu clicking is weird.

[anthonyh]

not sure if this is vray or 3dsmax 2018 but if i click in the viewport then click to try to change any value in the vray menus i always have to click twice to activate any input box or change any drop menu. once i`ve clicked in the menu it works as normal but click back in the viewport then back to click a drop down menu or input box in vray render menu and drop-downs instantly snap off and input boxes ignore the click until i click again. kind of a pain.

It's a 3ds Max 2018 issue; I get the same problem with e.g. the Scanline renderer without V-Ray installed at all. It would be best to report it to Autodesk.

Best regards,

I do recommend posting Max problems in the Area forums. Logging this now.

Wow, that's so annoying. So much for Max 2018 being production ready. Skipping another version... again. Anyways, I just reported the bug too in hope that it will get more attention. Sometimes I wonder if the people at ADSK make the effort of using their own software for more than 10 minutes before writing it off as ready for shipping. That's why an yearly release cycle will never work for 3ds Max. Most people skip every other version anyway since they are always buggy so why bother releasing every year?

I also experience this in max 2017. The sliders don't feel smooth
