duplicate special 2012

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.

When I duplicate specialfor an instance of an object, the object does not aline properly even tested it on standard objects and shapes but no joy.

Is maya 2012 just full of bugs or is it something I am doing wrong ???

Works fine for me. Have you reset the tool it looks like you don't have rotates set to zero.

It works. You just don't have your vertices aligned to the origin.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Looks like you haven't done a freeze transforms on the object you're trying to duplicate. Try that, or check the tool settings and make sure the rotations are all 0
