Hey so I starting using maya 2009 at home and quickly realized I can no longer hit w to reset the move tool if I have constrained it to an access. Fucking pisses me off. For example, in 2008 I would select a cube, middle mouse drag and it would not be constrained to anything, then if I dragged on one access it would…
Problem is I use shift middle mouse to constrain to an axis, then to reset the axis to x y z with no constraint in 2008 I could just hit w, in 2009 I have to hit q then hit w. Gayness.
I hear ya, I always use MMB for move! Not really a fix or nothing, but do you know you can use shift + MMB for constraining the movement by just dragging the objects in that direction. Don't think it can be used to un-constratint though....
hitting two hotkeys instead of one could add up I imagine, if you leverage mmb constrain often. That sounds horrible! and a real burden on yer creativity which craves unhindered immediacy/interactivity. For a 1 key solution use the "~" key instead of the "w" key problem solved... please send me money, loose wimmen or other…
