Hi,
i downloaded a rigged character,
and when opening the .max, the character is like selected with rectangles. And when you pan the view, is like restricted to only a part of the field.

How can i remove these ‘selection rectangles’ so i can see the whole view?

thanks

heres the file:

A screen shot indicating what you meant would have helped. Assuming I understand your problem, those are not “selection” rectangles, they are Safe Frames. Very important to understand and use them when composing shots, placing cameras etc. Read up on them in the Help.

They are, however, pretty annoying when you’re doing other stuff. Right-click the “+” viewport label > Configure > Safe Frames (tab) > Show Safe Frames in Active View.
