Maya Modeling :: Selecting Face Or Vertices Moves Whole Model

Nov 23, 2011

I am trying out Maya 2012 and when i select faces or vertices and try to move on individually, the whole model move. I don't need that, i just need to move the face or vertice alone not the whole image. Also is there any way to download tutorial and installing it into Maya 2012. where i am working with Maya 2012 don't have internet to browse right away.

Maya Modeling :: Can't Make Vertices Go Away

Feb 17, 2012

Maya 12 Hotfix 2, MacOS 10.6.8

When I am selecting objects, even in object mode I am getting this onslaught of bright yellow vertices, as though I had vertices selected in preferences or hotkeys... but I don't. All that stuff is off in my preferences. I can't seem to make it go away. Can't see faces for all the vertices cluttering up the view. Happening in all the panels.

Maya Modeling :: Aligning Vertices And Edges?

Oct 12, 2011

Is there some way to make the Scale Tool stop when multiple selected verts or edges are aligned, like in Max? I've noticed that you can overshoot when trying to align this way. I suppose there is always snapping to grid..

Maya Modeling :: How To Select Two Edges Or Vertices

Jan 23, 2012

What I'd like to know is whether Maya can do accuracy.

For instance: Is it possible for me to select two edges or vertices and type in an exact distance that I would like to have between them.

Very fine accuracy is not required.

Maya Modeling :: Why Are Vertices Around Selection Orange

Oct 19, 2011

I noticed that when a face is selected, vertices and edges in the near vicinity glow orange, and are affected when the primary selection is translated/rotated. Is there a way to modify only the primary selection without any secondary effects?

I know in other 3D modeling software it is possible to transform individual faces without deforming the surrounding geometry. Is there a setting that I need to change?

Maya Modeling :: Create New Face Between Vertices

Nov 20, 2010

I worked for some time with the free program blender to create my scenes and objects. Because I want to study the subject 'Technical Directing' I started learning how to work with Maya, the more "professional" software.

Although I read through the considered topic of the GettingStarted tutorial, I've still a question to you:

How can I create a face between already existing vertices? This would really improve my workflow.

Maya Modeling :: Scaling Vertices Uniformly?

Mar 7, 2013

Is there any other method for scaling an object in it's position using the vertices?

For example if you modeled wires or cables or bars and deleted the history but now you think they are too thick or too thin and you want to scale down without compromising their positions.

Look how I found 2 solutions, the cluster option takes more time.

I could not make a single cable on a floor thin out uniformly with the scale tool option. It did work with cluster on each bend but is a bit tedious.

Maya Modeling :: 2013 Is Not Selecting All Vertices?

Aug 17, 2012

lets say I marquee select the vertices on a cube in an orthographic view (top view or side view) only the vertices facing the camera get selected. And to clarify, CAMERA BASED SELECTION IS TURNED OFF. Also, not sure if it is related, but backface culling in preferences is also turned off. This usually will not happen in perspective view; but yesterday it did start happening in perspective view as well. And even more strange, it does not affect all meshes in the scene. Only some will react this way.

This bug only recently started happening and it is driving me nuts. I have been running 2013 on this machine since it was released, but not until recently did this bug start to occur; so I am wondering if I accidentally turned something on/off?

Maya Modeling :: Selecting Vertices In The Back?

Mar 5, 2011

I'm having a huge problem trying to select the vertices both in the front and the back of my object. I am familiar with backface culling, and the option is not working. I have tried toggling backface culling in the viewport, preferences, mesh component display and polygon display options. None of these options work. I want to be able to select all the vertices on a model, regardless of certain objects/faces being in the way. However, if there is a face in front of the vertice I am trying to select, Maya won't let me select it.

Maya Modeling :: Cannot Select Vertices That Are Farther From The Camera

Mar 29, 2011

I am working in meters.

I can not seem to select vertices that are "farther" from the camera.

If I scale the object down - I can start selecting multiple verts again.

Maya Modeling :: Function To Set Vertices Of Plane Equidistant From One Another

Jun 9, 2012

I'm working with a polygon plane and I've moved the vertices on the edges to where I want them. Now I want to set all the non-edge (interior?) vertices equal distance apart from one another. Is there a function or an easier way to do this or do I have to do it manually?

Maya Modeling :: Scaling Or Moving Vertices Uniformly?

Jun 26, 2011

Is there a way of scaling or transforming vertices uniformly without having to clean up some of the vertices afterwards.The closest attempt I have got is to switch the move tool to normals but this still requires a bit of straightening up afterwards.

Maya Modeling :: Rotate Edge But Only Move Affected Vertices?

Nov 17, 2012

I am trying to model the following simple structure:

I made this example by creating a new polygonal cylinder, rotating the top edges that are to the right of the x-axis and repositioning the affected vertices afterwards, but doing it that way just doesnt feel right, it seems too unclean to me.

I would like the affected vertices to only move on a given axis when rotating the edges, so I dont need to reposition them after the rotate operation. I tried to illustrate what I mean in the following screenshot:

The edges I want to rotate are marked in red, the vertices that are supposed to only move on the y-axis are marked in green. The arrows indicate the desired movement.

Is this way of rotating an edge possible with the rotate tool or something?

Maya Modeling :: How To Model A Cloth

Nov 9, 2011

I need to model a cloth in Maya 2012 as a part of a college assignment. I have attached a jpeg of my pre-production artwork, in it you can see the yellow cloth placed on two wooden planks. At the moment I am modelling the cloth by adjusting the vertices, but find it to be a bit tedious. Is there any other way for me get effective results. Since I am a beginner I would like to know the the different ways a little in detail.

Maya Modeling :: How To Boolean / Engrave Text Onto Model

Jun 12, 2011

Have a model of a camera that was made out of polys, whats the best way to boolean / engrave text onto the model? i tried tons of things, deleting history before boolean diff, combining the objects then extracting. Result is that it either doesnt work or deletes both my text and my object. I always try to boolean things in my model because i lack experience with creating and applying displacement maps.

How to achieve this using boolean diff or can they suggest what to use as reference to learn how to create displacement maps.

I'm modelling a complex curve for a fashion garment. I've always modelled in polygons in the past but have had more success on this project using nurbs, however I've got to a certain position and I'm wondering which way is the best way to model / create the next section of the garment(see image attached). Is it just the case of creating lots of section lines as lofting?

Maya Modeling :: Rigging And Animation - Model Shoes And Socks

Nov 3, 2011

I am almost done with my model. He is in a naked state for the sake of making sure the anatomy is correct. I am preparing to rig, texture, and animate him. I plan on modeling the shirt and pants separate and use Maya's nCloth for those. I have also modeled glasses that are a completely separate mesh that will need to follow every movement of the head of my model.

Here is my issue, I am puzzled on how to model my shoes and socks.

1) Should i model them as part of the legs to eliminate further animation?
2) Should I model thee shoes and socks separate from the legs?

way to form a hierarchy where i can model everything individually and then make the main body rig a parent to everything secondary (shoes, socks, glasses, etc...)?
