In 3ds Max when you have multiple components selected the pivot options become really dynamic, allowing you to move from the center of the selection or individual component pivots when mousing over them, i.e. a multi vert selection can be moved based on the pivot of a single vert in the selection. I realize Maya has the…
I wondered if there is a feature or plugin for Maya that gives you a smart guide like in Adobe Illustrator, because I figured that my main source of bad geometry is that I accidentally move vertices that are supposed to be in line with others. It is just really annoying to clean up afterwards and although I guess it's not…

So Maya sometimes does this cute thing where it changes some random setting for me without my asking... I'm sure this has happened to everyone. THIS TIME it's changed something someplace to make it so that when I hit F to frame up an object, it jumps straight to it after making the screen blank for a second instead of the…

Got to love these rig issues. Since Maya thought my previous issue wasn't enough: http://polycount.com/discussion/186517/the-weirdest-maya-issue-ive-had-so-far#latest I now have another issue. For some reason, the channel attributes are missing. This will happen randomly and I'm not 100% sure why. Here is some pics to…

Hiya peeps, has anyone experienced a face selection issue in Maya's UV Editor where you're unable to select back faces? Try as I might I can't seem to do a normal rectangle selection and select all the faces. I'm not sure if I hit some magical hotkey or sommin (which I would immediately delete if the case). Any help would…
Hi guys, I'm doing a school work for descriptive geometry class, I modelled an 'M' letter in Autodesk Maya and I took the M and did a rotation then a mirror and cutted it in half, with those 3 actions I got some of the assignment done, but now I have to represent those geometries in specific perspectives like: isometric,…
