Direct connect is broken in maya 2014 osx. This now means that dwg, dxf and iges will not import. I have the latest Service pack 1 installed but still no go! This means the only work flow is to do it on a windows version of maya then open it in the Mac.

Adding the second layer of weld in the dialog box, it is impossible to specify the weld size as the text areas don't show up when the symbol is added. The bottom weld symbol works fine though.

In the attached part factory, the two work planes are included in the members. They would need to be individually set invisible in each assembly view representation because the members only have the Master view representation.

Did 2013 change the way Direct Distance Entry is handled?
Say I want to start a line a distance of 3 from another line using Otrack and a running endpoint snap. Before, I could just hover over the existing line's endpoint, move the cursor in the right direction, and enter 3 on the keyboard. Now in 2013, I need to have Dynamic Input (F12) turned on to get this behavior. 2012 was not this way.
I just set up my wrist control and it has a bunch of connections going all over the place to allow for IK FK blending. but as a result, I get this weird bend in my IK handle. it occurs only when I move my controller and then press z to undo. the IKhandle line gets kind of stuck out in space. it has no affect on the skeleton's movement as far as I know.

1-st frame - starting pose
24-th frame - starting pose
and then somewhere at frame 12 change position of 3 bones and set a keyframe
Starting pose goes mess... I've checked this behaviour under Mac OS and Windows XP. it is the same broken. is it a new feature which I simply don't know how to control?
I have modeled a face and body of a character separately. I want to join both of them but the border edges are not the same . so whats the method to join both of them together .
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently upgraded from Maya 7 (32-bit Windows XP) to Maya 2010 (64-bit Windows XP). In Maya 7, I used corrective blend shapes to fine tune skin deformations by the bones of a character's skeleton. I used Parallel blending, and it all worked very nicely.
I've been trying to do exactly the same thing in Maya 2010, and it works fine with the character in its default 'T' position. If I then try to pose the character, the corrections become progressively worse the more extreme the pose.
I'm using the same technique as I did in Maya 7, so I'm wondering if something has broken.

I have been migrating dozens and dozens of .pat files from one version of AutoCAD to the next for many, many versions. Most recently in AutoCAD 2013 the .pat files were stored in the C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2013SupportPatterns - worked fine. During the migration to 2014 I received an install error report stating that this subdirectory did not exist and could not be created. Alternately it stated that the new default path C:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamiongAutodesk|AutoCAD 2014R19.1enuSupport will be used instead.
At first I created the Patterns subdirectory where it could not be done automatically. No luck. Then I placed the Patterns subdirectory in C:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamiongAutodesk|AutoCAD 2014R19.1enuSupportPatterns and no luck.
Happens every year. Upgrade and spend half a day or more trying to get everything back to the way I had it. All I have is a couple small toolbars for commands that are several clicks deep in the ribbons and I want them "right there" all the time.
I thought Autodesk 360 might be a good tool for this. All it did was DOWNLOAD some old settings and destroy one of the toolbars I'd created. They really need an override in there to specify upload, download, overwrite or don't.
I'm trying to migrate (I guess that's the technical term) my settings from 2013 Mechanical to 2014 Mechanical. It's probably too late already, after 360 did its deal, but I really want to get this down so we don't go through it every year anymore.
I maintain that PTC had this part of it down Pro/ENGINEER. You had a config file that was editable plain text.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed Maya 2014 SP4 at home, this is a fresh install and was just trying to see if there are any problems with the new SP before I install it at work.
But for some reason, the install went OK, but when I looked under the Render settings there is no MentalRay, and then looking in the Plugins list, there are none there either?
So since I have had 2014 installed grease pencil only worked once and I have not changed anything. It just worked all of a sudden one start up, but prior to that and since it has not worked at all. Everything opens (the menu) and when I add a frame and select a brush that all works, but when using the mouse or Wacom tab it will not paint anything. I even upgraded to the latest drivers for the Wacom, but like I said the mouse wont work either.

We are just trying out Maya 2014 and seem to have found a little problem that we cannot seem to work around!
If we say have two object and we select one of them, if we then try to move that object along one axis, it moves a very small amount and then selects the other object, but neither move any more, if we unselect the second object and then try to move it again the same thing happens.
We are using a Wacom Tablet as the main pointing device and all three butttons are set right, and we have also tried a mouse and this does the same. We do have a 3Dconnexion Space Pilot Pro also connected but this has been disconnected to see if this caused the issue somehow but without it connected the issues is still aparent.
Works fine on 2013 no issues at all, but the problem just seems to effect the move tool in Maya 2014.
I have checked that soft selection is disabled and it is? maybe I have inadvertedly hit a shortcut sequence to switch something on or off, but cannot find anything else amiss.
What's up with the Show Manipulator Tool in Maya 2014? On my system, the tool is not showing up in the toolbar. There's just a blank spot where the icon used to be. The tool is still accessible via the General Shelf.
