I downloaded few days ago PLE-version of Maya and it's great. I have one annoying thing. When I installed Maya my gizmo was like it should be, but yesterday it somehow became like this. Because gizmo is almost compeletely same color as box, it's hard to see it sometimes. Does somebody knows how it could get back to normal? I tried reset Maya to defaults by deleting prefs but it didn't help.

Hmm... I reinstalled it but it's not working even now. I think that the problem is in my computer. Anyway that's not so bad problem that I couldn't continue modelling.

Edit. So I noticed that the gizmo is always same coloured as the object I'm working with. Mayby that tells that the problem could be in the program.
