Need help with 2 questions
Hi everyone.
Im trying to make a model that I can send in with my portfolio of my art to a school, so I amvery new to maya and this is my first attempt of a character. I have come across a weird thing that should be easy to fix :) See the img and you see that the vertex are allways highlighted purpole. I must have hit a key or something to activate it. How do I deactivate it? http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/314/toplogy.jpg Im also wondering is there a way I could hide the vertex and lines in the back of my char when I am modeling in the front. Some times I think its hard to tell wich lines are in front and in the back in the front/side view. Im very thankfull for any help. |
You can select the mode by holding the RMB on the mesh. You are in vertex mode. By pressing space you can switch to different views
EDIT: pressing numbers on your keyboard also switches render mode. 4 - wireframe 5 - shaded 6 - with textures Hope this helps! |
Thanks. sry will post another picture to describe better :) Its that the vertex is allways shown.
examaple: I am now in object mode not vertex mode. http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/5492/97272027.jpg |
Ok I figured out the second Q after a while of googeling that its called backface culling. How do I activate this on Maya 2009?
|
Go to Display>Polygons>Vertices.
Backface culling is also under the polygon display I mentioned above, probably be a good idea to assign a hotkey to that. |

And backface culling is Display>Polygons>costum poligon display. Thanks both of you for the fast help. |
Your welcome, and yeah its there too but its also at the top of the poly display menu which is faster to access :X

Is there away one can asign Backface culling to only certain camera views. like the side and front view, And keep it as it is in the perspective view? |
backface culling has always been a bit flaky in maya I think (as in not working sometimes).
Since you're using 2009, in the tool settings for, check camera based selection and try that. Hope it helps gubar |
:confused:
