I am looking to be able to customize the title bar at the top of my max interface window.

Currently it displays “Scene_name.max -Project Folder: C:\Documents and Settings|Dave|My Documents\3dsmax -Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2009 SP1 . . . .”

Does anybody know of a way to customize this???  I’m guessing its a bit of text that needs replacing in a base file somewhere, but i can’t find anything

Cheers

That could very likely be something that is hard-coded, and can’t be changed.  I don’t know for certain, though.

I’m curious what you want to change it to?

3DS Max Design 2011 64-bit - Advantage Pack
Dell Precision T5500, Dual Six Core Xeon X5650 @ 2.67GHz, nVidia Quadro 5000, 24 GB RAM, Win 7 Enterprise 64-bit
Minneapolis, MN, USA

no reason really, i was just trying to be clever as i am a 3ds max instructor and wanted it to display my name and job title for when i am doing training

why not use a directory structure containing your name ? you even can get away using a “.” in it (like “d:\Your Instructor - John.Smith")
After you’ve set your project directory to this folder, at least you get your name shown as part of the tilebar string....
