2 If the button in the COM/DCOM Server Control rollout says Register, then click it. If it says Unregister, then do nothing, as 3ds Max is already registered. Now 3ds Max is registered as a DCOM server and an instance of it can be created from any COM client. NOTE Not all products include this utility. You can build it from the source located in \maxsdk\samples\utility\comsrv\. Copy the resulting comsrvui.dlu to the 3ds Max \plugins directory. It is also possible to register and unregister from the command line. There are two command-line options that can be passed to 3ds Max: 3DSMAX -RegisterMAXRenderer 3DSMAX -UnregisterMAXRenderer Customize User Interface Dialog Customize menu > Customize User Interface The Customize User Interface dialog lets you create an entirely customized user interface, including shortcuts, quad menus, menus, toolbars, and colors. You can also add commands and macro scripts by selecting either a text or icon button to represent the command or script on the toolbar. Most commands in the 3ds Max interface appear in this dialog as action items. An action item is simply a command that you can assign to a keyboard shortcut, toolbar, quad menu, or menu. The Keyboard, Toolbars, Quads, and Menus panels of this dialog show tables of action items that you can assign. (Tables in the Colors panel list UI elements, instead.) NOTE A few action items do not correspond to any elements in the default user interface. See Additional Keyboard Commands on page 7465.
