I have some splines and I wanted to get them to render in viewport and renderer, however the width required would be below 0.0001 and when I enter such a low value and leave the parameter it defaults to zero cancelling the effect. I am working to real work scale so need to be working in metres. Is there a solution to this or would it only work at a larger scale?

Thanks

1M = 100cm = 1000mm - all are “to scale”. Dare I ask what you’re modelling that needs to be 0.1mm thick? Even if Max would allow figures that small you would run into rounding problems. More than 2 decimal places is to be avioded if at all possible (single precision floating point maths).

I was doing eyelashes using splines for a character; this gave my more control then hair and fur which is why I chose that approach.

alright cheers guys
