Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

linking the distance tool to objects.

Hey all, is there a way to link the distance tool to objects. So that if i move an object, it will tell me the distance between the two? I tried grouping the objects and the distance tool but no dice.

Any ideas? thanks.
