Moving vertex along edge in Maya?

ENODMI

Anyone know a way to move a vertex along an edge without shifting the edge itself? I saw this done in 3DSMAX once and trying to find something similar in Maya.

tacit math

hold c ( curve snapping ). middle mouse ( click on the edge you're after and drag away )

Took me a few tries, but it works great, thanks!

hold down d and klick on an edge will also work...

Cool necrobump!

In modern Maya, you can also turn on Edge or Surface slide in the Transform Contstraints via the Modeling Toolkit, or by marking menu: holding w+lmb.

In 2018 it's also possible to hold Ctrl+Shift while with a transform tool enabled
