AutoPlace is similar to the auto grid functionality at an objects creation time. When you press the button, the objects follows the mouse. It also will be oriented to the faces you are hovering.The motivation for this script was Edudrive (game project from school). I used this functionality in a simple editor I made for this game.

Hey Jos it’s a awesome, but i found some incorrect working of the script, the script see hided(unseen) geometry and it place even in isolation mod, and it’s tried to place object in the air. Can you fix it?
nice script but work on only max objects
not on import object in max like chair sofa, etc.
because their pivot is not at the bottom
it will be great script if the snapping with object not with its pivot
thank you for sharing this, simplicity in UI is key also
Thanx a lot for the script! very usefull!
Is there a chance to add the possibility to keep the rotation of the copied object? I would be grateful!
That should be no problem. I’ll add this soon!
Very useful little script there. Thanks very much!
