Affect Region Modifier in 3ds Max 2016

The document discusses the Affect Region Modifier in 3ds Max 2016. It describes how to access the modifier through the modifier list and its parameters like Falloff, which sets the radius of affected vertices, and Pinch, which affects the tangency of the curve at the tip of the modifier's gizmo arrow. It also mentions that the modifier works similarly to the Soft Selection tool and affects vertex positions based on the position and settings of the gizmo arrow.
