===Shortcut keys===
There are a number of shortcut keys that are useful, refer to the Help display for 3dsmax/gmax for a guide.


A particularly useful one is the function key F2. When in Edit Mesh mode and using the Polygon option to choose surfaces of an object by clicking on them, the F2 key will toggle the color of those surfaces to show you exactly which ones you have chosen.


The Ctrl key is used when selecting a number of surfaces or polygons together, for a complicated object.
