Right-Click was working, Now Changed? Not sure what I have done???
4 Attachment(s)
OK, very new to Maya, I have been getting my head around it, and in the process I have selected either the wrong keyboard shortcut or shirt instead of crtl, etc… but I have lost the ability to select object, faces, edges, etc from all viewports except the perspective window.
I now only have the correct setting for when I right-click the mouse in the perspective windows (please see attached image 02-03-2011 14-41-58.jpg (the second image)). If I then right-click on any object in any of the other windows (top, front, side) I get a different window (see attached image 02-03-2011 14-41-32.jpg (the first image)). Really could do with a hand to point out where I have gone wrong / or what I have done to cause this, tried quitting out, but still the same when Maya re-starts, really annoying as cannot finish of my tutorial. So please help!! Beg Beg, Would really appreciate helping me (the thickie) out… If it helps I have also noticed that at the same time that this happened I noticed that I cannot just click on an object to select it, but when I left click to select an object I get a list of all of the objects that I could select on appear as opposed to whatever I am selecting? really annoying and cannot get rid of this, as do not know how??? (see attached image 06-03-2011 12-13-13.jpg (the thrid image)) PLEASE HELP..... Also here is another issue, here i am right-clicking on a curve to try to select 'control vertex', but when i right-click i get the following menu appear and not the option to select control-vertex, etc.... (see attached image 06-03-2011 12-32-24.jpg (the forth image)). |
Hmm, strange. Might be best to rename your prefs folder (old_prefs) and then delete it. Maya will create a new set of default prefs, which often sorts out weird behaviour.
|
Now thought I would give Maya another go and installed the trial for Maya 2013 and still got this issue, but on two new PC's with different video cards, so I take it Maya has not fixed this yet????

What kind of mouse do you have?

You have way to much going on here and so it's hard to diagnose. I would recommend Stewarts suggestion and simply rename you Maya folder (close maya first). On windows that maya folder is in the documents directory.
The next time you start maya all the preferences will be set back to the defaults and whtever mode(s) you have turned on should be reset. Maya like all the major 3D apps have lots of hotkeys and so you must be careful especially when pressing the ctrl, alt and shift keys. Unmodified key presses can also get you messed up the most common two are the "b-key" for soft select mode, and the "s-key" for setting keyframes. So try to be careful but remember you can always get back to the defaults by renaming or deleting the Maya preferences folder in the Documents directory. What I like to do is after I set up my shelfs and my own hotkeys I save a copy of this folder and when I inevitably turn on some odd mode I simply replace the folder with this backup. |

Hi Chris
Can you upload a copy of the scene file with all the geo deleted except the curve and pCylinder8? |
