Transitioning to Maya. Got some newbie questions.

EGGO · Sep 2021

Hello, I'm transitioning to Maya and having a bit of problems.
So is there a way to set channel slider settings to ANY other position rather then Medium at startup? I want it to be Slow by default always plz... )

Ok click on arrow icon to unlock clock icon which control what you want

Thnks) Yeah I know how to switch it but I want it to be other then Medium each time I'm starting Maya. Don't want to turn to low each time... ((

I guess you could made a button out of it , in scrip editor there should be show all action option , when you click on channel icons it will show as code then just drag that in to your toolbar to turn it in to a button [might require some editing ]

Actually if you lock the clock and close maya it should be saved might not happen the first time maya is tricky

Sadly but this command didn't show up(((
Will try to research this one more. ty

Make this in to a button :

channelBoxSettings slow 2;

Just in case you need something else in the future this is what you have to have ticked to make maya show everything [echo all commands ]

Thanks again @carvuliero
I've ended up to put this command also into userSetup.mel (\My Documents\maya\2022\scripts) to get it by default at Maya startup.

That's even better solution , enjoy your new power to bend maya to your will
