Maya :: Tangents Not Showing In Graph Editor
May 11, 2011
I have this scene with two characters, if i select a node (i.e. the hip control) and go to the graph editor it only shows one tangent. Even if i select a bunch of them in the left panel it only shows one! It seems like a bug to me because this file works fine in 2011.
I'm an Animation Mentor student and the staff have no clue of what's going on. They just advised me to stick with a working maya version for the moment, but maya 2011 is very slow for my computer.

This happened recently. No matter what preferences I reset or options I click it wont show all the attributes. I go to the school, file is fine. I can see everything when I select control handles.
I uninstalled everything, cleaned registry. rebooted. reinstalled. Still have the problem. It should show all the attributes for translate and rotation. I tried the same file on different computers and it shows them all selected.

My Animation Graph Editor is only showing one animation curve (for one attribute) at a time after I have set multiple keyframes for the character set and various attributes. I select multiple attributes, and hit View-Frame All, and it only shows the top attribute of the selected attributes as one curve.

I am using HumanIK with Graph Editor to animate my character. First I create pose to pose and then I go to the Graph Editor to set the timing of the animation. In the Graph Editor I drag select multiple keys to get the timing correct. Then I go to the timeSlider and copy/paste keys to make some tweaking. And here we have the problem! When I copy key/keys all are good, but when I am going to paste key/keys Maya give me a fatal error!
Reproducible:
Make a default skeleton from the Character Controls menu and then make a Control Rig. Select HipsEffector set keys on frame 1, 12 and 24. Then in the Character Controls menu go to the Controls tap and left mouse click in the empty space next to the Character image to select all. Now open up the Graph Editor and select all the keys on frame 12 and with the Move Tool shift middle drag the keys to the right.
If you at this point go to the timeSlider and copy key frame 12 and paste it somewhere in the timeSlider Maya gets a fatal error pop up.
If the action shift middle drag with the Move Tool hasn't been used then Maya haven't popped up with the fatal error!

I've been using Maya's HumanIK function for my model for a game I'm building. I began doing some animation, but I'm running into multiple problems. I've noticed for a while now that moving the IK handles with values from the channel box is a complete waste of time. It is unresponsive to the Channel Box numbers and how I can make it so it is. The only way to make the IKs move is to move or rotate them directly on the model with the basic manipulator tools.
Not only that, but did the animation, which for now is an idle breathing stance, between frames the animation moves on its own, beyond the scope of what I told it to move, even when its between two of the exact same frames. I haven't animated in a while, so I can't remember how I used to fix this, but since I know a bit more about animation now, I dabbled into my Graph Editor. Moving the curves have no effect on the animation either and I can't change the tangents nor use the smoothing handles.
The closest thing I found was something saying to change my Animation Settings in the Preferences to make the HIK curve default to Independent Euler-Angle curves, but that doesn't seem to work either.

I've got a problem with the graph editor in 2012 changing the values of my curves when I retime the curves. Basically, when I select all the controlers in my character rig, the go to move each set of keys over 2-3 frames, the curve values change. So the walk cycle essentially breaks, and my feet end up further in front, and the y trans value flattens out.
I've just installed hot fix 2, and that hasn't changed it. This has worked fine in every version of Maya i've used since version 3. Is it an 'new option' that i need to turn off I don't know about?

I'm doing a walk cycle. and I have 2 feet. I have to manually switch in the numbers that result in a graph that is basically identical but with a horizontal and vertical flip.
instead of manually typing in the numbers I'd like to copy one set of keys and paste it onto the second foot. I know I can get a vertical flip by doing *=-1 but is there a way to get a horizontal flip also?

I have a object divided to multiple parts, nearly 150, and when animating the rotation or any attribute I want some spacing between the keyframes, so that the second part starts moving after the first one by 5 frames, and it's about 150 objects, and i don' t want do it all manually, Is there any script or technique that could speed up my workflow.

After animating, controls will not show up in the graph editor for fine tuning.

Say I have a series of keys, and I want to add exactly 1 or 2 spaces in between each key. is there a way to do that? rather than selecting chunks at a time and spacing them apart... like +=2 will move all the selected keys over 2 spaces all together. maybe theres a code that moves them with an offset?

I have a hard time copying/pasting graph editor curves from a scene to another, since it`s only a specific part of the timeline, is there some basic rules that are to be observed for things to work properly? Yes after a thousand tries i`m going to have to edit every darn ecking curves accordingly to those i wanted to copy.

This is a pretty basic function in the Graph Editor.
All I want to do is copy some keyframes at one point to farther down the timeline IN the graph editor. Basically, select some keys, move to a new time and paste those same values. When I paste, all it does is add keys to the existing curve. I haven't used maya in awhile (2008 version), but I'm PRETTY sure this function was available. Why doesn't it work in 2011?
I've searched online, I've tried copying, moving to new time, create some keys, select them and then paste over them, but still doesn't work. And yeah, I know about the middle mouse button time slide trick, which is a workaround but doesn't work if you're copying multiple keys over time. I want to be able to do this BASIC function. What's the deal? On a Mac.

1. Windows/Animation Editors/HumanIK/Skeleton Generator - Generate Skeleton
2. Create control rig for it.
3. Set keys to rotate shoulder down and back.
Keys are linear by default and cannot be changed, except to "stepped". Clicking Spline, Auto, etc. Doesn't change anything. Works fine on translation curves. URL....I accidentally check the "force FIK curves to linear" button? It's totally killing our animation pipeline.

Illustrator can make graphs with lines and bars / columns, for example from the docs: [URL] .....
However, when I create a graph like this, I seem to lose the ability to manually set the value axis using "override calculated values".
To reproduce this problem: Create a graph like the example, with bars and an axis on the left, lines and an axis on the right. Unlike the example, don't fix the numbers so the lines match up neatly - have one side go up to just under 20, one up to just under 250, so there are mismatched markers and numbers of divisions on each side.Try to make the markers and numbers of divisions match up, so the side that goes up to 20 actually goes up to 25 and has the same number of divisions as the other side.Everything I've tried doesn't work:
If I select the whole graph and go to 'Graph Type', I can't set Value Axis options. In earlier versions it's greyed out, in CS6 I can access it but clicking 'Okay' does nothing.If I select the whole graph and chose one graph type, I can set the Value Axis options, but that selected graph type then applies to the whole chart,If I use the Group Selection tool to select one of the series, and open 'Graph Type' options, changing the Value Axis options has no effectIf I use the Group Selection tool to select all series that share an axis and open 'Graph Type' options, changing the Value Axis options still has no effectIf I use the Group Selection tool to select the axis ticks group itself, or the axis line and axis ticks groups themselves, or the axis labels, axis line and axis ticks, or the axis labels, axis line, axis ticks and associated data series, etc, changing the Value Axis options also has no effect
It seems like this feature is broken and it seems like the example in the manual was carefully chosen to use a rare combination of numbers where it would actually look right.

When I insert new data on an existing graph (for example, just adding a new year of data) and press insert, it just deletes the graph entirely. My only option is to recreate the entire graph which is frustrating because I lose its format and colors.

I have a column graph. I want the data values to display in the columns. How do I do that? Here's what I have now:
I want the values 270018, 283148, etc. to display in the graph. Is that possible?

I'm totally new to Illustrator and want to use the line graph tool to insert a graph that passes through 0,0 and runs to 24,24. I want the x and y axes to meet at the origin. As it isn't working as you can see. I've used 0, 0 and 24, 24 as my data points. Is there any way I can change how this is presented so it's clear that it's at the origin?
I'm using CS6, if that matters.

My current scene has 10 animation layers for a character, and seeing every f-curve from all layers, although grey and locked, when I only need to see the f-curves in layer I'm working on is really cluttering the graph editor. My current work around is selecting my active layer in the Layer Editor every time I select a rig control. Simple enough, but a pretty inefficient way of working. I can't seem to find a setting that allows me to just see ONLY the fcurves in the active layer. I imagine some of you out there may have hundreds of animations for a single game character.

I just installed LT2013 and migratet my settings from LT2008.
Doubleclicking on a blok openes the block editor in LT2008, but not in LT2013.
In LT2008, the main cui file was acadlt.cui. And in this file the "block - double click" action was specified. And it worked in LT2008. I have my own cui-file which not contains any doubleclick-actions.
In LT2013, after migration from LT2008, the mail cui file is now my own cui-file (which not contains any doubleclick actions). Is this why it doesnt work ?
I have tryed to copy a doubleclickaction from acadlt.cui to "my own cui-file". And now it works.
Is this because "my " cui file now is the main cui file ? Why is "my" cui file the main cui file after migration ? is there a way to change, so acadlt.cui becomes the main cui file ?
If not, is there a way to transfer alle settings from acadlt.cui to "my" cui file ? I know i can do this one action of a time in "transfer".

If there is a way to change the behavior of the middle mouse button in the Node Editor so that by default it moves the panel without needing to press the Alt key?
Ideally I'd like to swap the behavior of pressing the Alt Key + Middle Mouse with just the Middle Mouse.

I'm trying to connect. On the inputs, I'm loading the control curve, on the outputs, the cluster.
I'm trying to connect the translate values.
However, it doesn't allow me to select the input first. I can select the output first, but that puts the connection backwards.
I don't see why a control curve can't be connected to a cluster? Or is something wrong with my Connection Editor?

No matter what changes I make in the UV texture editor, the texture on my model doesn't change (with the colors I put on it until I finalized the UV map, it would be pretty obvious). But nothing happens. Move UVs, Rotate UVs, Scale UVs--does not change the texture on the model.
Am I missing something? This all used to work just fine. Is it a setting change? Is this something caused by brining a Maya2010 file into 2011?

while working in "UV Texture Editor" and i select the shape, i keep getting a warning down at the bottom that says "//Warning: Some items cannot be moved or rotated in the 3D view." how do i disable this warning? earlier, this message wasn't showing up, but i must of pressed something on accident and enabled an option somewhere. The rotation box up in the right hand corner is gone too.
