Mouse like in 3D-Max

Hello!
I just wanna know if it is possible to have the mouse like in 3D-Max (moving to one end of the screen popping up on the other end) ... ?

Thanx
Train

AFAIK, that is a feature unique to 3ds max and cannot be done in Maya.

Actually, he's referring to the cursor wrapping around the screen, i.e. go off the right side and reappear on the left. It's something that happens in 3ds max (and Rhino, apparently user added image ) that allows for continuous mouse movement in one direction.

What happens if you drag an object like that? does the object pop back on the other side of the screen, or does it just stay where it was before the mouse wrapped?

well the object won´t change, but the mouse position does, so that you can move an object a long way with only one click and one drag ...
