Near and Far clip plane in Maya

TWilson

The near and far clip plane reset to 0 and 10 no matter what I set in my preferences. So each time I start a new scene I end up having to fix each camera's values. This seems to be a common maya bug that most people just work around. I'd like to figure it out tho.

Has anyone had this before? What is the solution?

Yeah I hate having clip plane issues

If your preferences aren't working, perhaps echo all commands in the script editor and make a shelf button out of the step you take to fix the camera? At least then it would be the click of an icon.

I'd probably go with Nacire's recommendation if I ever bothered to fix it. Turn on Echo all, set the values for each viewport, copy and paste the needed code, then make it a button.

Oh hell good call. I'm pretty sure I already made that button....forgot about it
