[MAYA 2016] Invisible UVs

Rnz

Hi guys,

I started encountering an odd bug today while doing UVs.
I have the UV Editor open and I am working on the UVs of an object. As soon as select a different mesh, the UV Editor shows no UVS, even though all meshes in this scene have unfolded UVs. Now, when I click a random button in the UV Edior, toggle seams, display image, whatever, the UVs re-appear.

This makes working with UVs really annoying. Does anybody know, where this could come from?

Unfortunately I don't have a fix for you, but I can add that I see the exact same issue, so it's not just local to your machine. I've also seen some intermittent UV corruption where I'll start working on a mesh that has an existing UV layout, I'll re-select it and the UV's look all FUBAR. Only thing I've found to fix that one is a Maya restart.

I have the same issue as well. Selecting the object again seems to work, and I have gotten used to it.
Not very comfortable, but I like the new unfold brush too much to go back.
They'll fix it soon, hopefully.

[brokenrecord]its ur video card drivers[/brokenrecord]

nvidia or amd? I'd try rolling back drivers as a test.

I had a similar issue, but it was while trying to fix someone's severely broken mesh.

i have the same issue, Maya 2016 too. Just re-selecting the object will do, but it's annoying.

Yeah for now I am pretty much double-clicking the objects, which is annoying, but works.
I will try to see if it's driver related, thanks!

Is it perhaps selecting the wrong UV set at first? Do your meshes have more than one?

I think it's just a bug introduced in 2016. Maybe one of the service packs will fix it

No, it's definiftely just one UV set.

Probably too late, but anyways:
I had the same problem - the trick for me was, to give the mesh the default Lambert! (Before that I used a material that had a texture map on both the Color and Transparacy channels) 
Hope I could still help anyone

Are you all on Extension 2 of 2016?
