Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Copy and paste

I'v got a few simple questions.
How do you change the background colour of a render?
Is there a simple way to drag a model while pressing a button to copy it?

well to change the background color...select the camera you're rendering in...once your camera is selected...on the tabs menu...there should be a tab called "enviornment" in there u will see its black...thats the color you change to change your bg color in renders and as far as your second question...im not quite sure if I understand what you're asking

in 3D Studio Max if you hold shift and move an object you can duplicate/instance it. If you hold alt in photoshop and drag a layer you create a copy of it.

I believe that is what is desired here.

As for how to do such a thing in Maya? I'm not quite sure. But if you hit ctrl+d you get a duplicate and can move that as you please.


Peace, love and Anarchy~~~~~~~
