I'm trying to desperatly remember the command, it was somthing like ReBuildSceneUI.

I've even recommended it to people on this forum and can't remember it. It's driving me crazy and of course it's undocumented. Anyone know the command to rebuild the current scene ui. Very handy if you have opened a file from an older version of maya.

Cheers

The current scene UI? What do you mean by that?

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Each scene you save, saves some preferences about the UI this command resets thous preferences. I've never seen anything else that will do it.

Ha I remembered it buildNewSceneUI; this is one of the most useful commands I've come across it your opening other peoples scenes especially from a different version of Maya.
