Right, I was going to use TyFlow, but I was really hoping to avoid that; I assumed there was probably already a script floating around that maybe someone had but never shared online(?)

Honestly I don't know what's missing from it. But this - to me - is an awful tool. I have no idea what it wants, I never get the expected results.

Array is a great tool and i use it a lot, but it doesn't do what cwidd wants. It can't take multiple existing objects and arrange them into some array. I need to test that mcg script - never felt particular need for such tool, but who knows, sometime it may come handy.

Do you mean, "How does the 3ds Max array tool not suit the intended use case?"
I think the answer is just that the array tool does not perform this function; the array tool generates an array of instances (or copies) based on the transform of the selected objects, the array tool does not *arrange* objects, which is what I'm trying to do, and what the MCG_Arrange tool used to do.
