-Although Lasershow Converter MAX's default settings give good results for most scenes, it is still handy to assign point placement settings on an object-by-object basis. Below you will find some suggested settings for various scenes.+Although Lasershow Converter MAX's default((For any number value, you can return to the Lasershow Converter MAX default value by right-clicking on the up/down arrow: \\ {{:tools:lcmax:default_right-click.gif?nolink|}} \\ For non-numeric values, such as option buttons, check boxes, and drop-down lists, you cannot automatically return to the Lasershow Converter MAX default values.

 Although the corner detector will no longer put any extra corner points here, the curve detector will still place more points in this area. Moreover, as the camera angle changes, the facets will show up in different places and in different amounts of curvature. Although the corner detector will no longer put any extra corner points here, the curve detector will still place more points in this area.

-The default **AutoSpace Distance** (below) has a large difference between the **Straight lines** point density, and the **Curved lines** point density. In addition, the default **Curve detect** is set to a value of 50. With an object like this coarsely defined sphere, there will be drastically different point densities in different parts of the sphere.+The default<sup>[[#fn__1|1)]]</sup> **AutoSpace Distance** (below) has a large difference between the **Straight lines** point density, and the **Curved lines** point density.
