UV's not moving, scaling or editing correctly in UV editor

Dpower357 — Fri, 08 Dec 2017 15:06:49 GMT

Hello Everyone.

I'm having trouble moving shells and UV's in my UV Editor. See video link.

Whenever I try to grab or move my UVs, they either move oddly or do not move at all. I've attached the maya file as well.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Maya2018.1 and Mac OSX 10.13.1

Hi @Dpower357

Thanks for attaching the scene file! Unfortunately your video wasn't available to view but I was able to open the scene and had no problems moving the shells.

When you get a chance, can you please make another video showing your issue so I can get a better idea of how to further assist you?

If you need a video capturing program, Screencast is a great option that we use here at Autodesk

Hey Sean. Thanks for looking into this.

I don't know what to do about the video. I'm watching it right now from the forum.

I published it on Youtube and attached the link through the video button. Is there a better format?

Thanks.

Hi @Dpower357

You might have the video set to private which would be why I cant see it.

You could also zip the video and attach it here like you did with the scene file!

AAuuugggh...

There is always a button to click somewhere.

OK. I've made it public. Let me know if that helps.

Thanks.

Hi @Dpower357

Yeah it's always something

I went ahead and made a screencast showing how I would go about using the 3D Cute and Sew Tool that should help you out!

On top of that, in the video I mention a tutorial video that I followed when the tool first came out and you can find that here!

Please let me know if this helps or if you need any more assistance!

Hi!

Your UV's are pinned, simply use Unpin All.
