Annoying Modifier in the Way!

[Guest]

Hi,

 

I'm having this annoying issue where I'm trying to edit my editable poly by clicking 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 as shortcuts to get to the components of the poly, but in many cases I have added a modifier which does not allow me to shortcut directly to editing the poly. So I'm force's to use the mouse to manually take me to editing the poly components instead of the shortcut.

 

 

Any shortcuts to getting directly to editing the components of the poly even if the modifier is obstructing it? Thanks.

I haven't used 3ds Max in years, but would it be helpful to add an Edit Poly modifier to the top of the stack?

Thanks for your reply. Tried it but it gives me a warning when I go to the modifier stack about undesirable effects. I just want to jump to the original edit poly components with a shortcut...
