Polygons > Unfold

Anonymous — Sat, 02 Jul 2016 15:42:21 GMT

I'm using Maya 2015 student version. I'm doing the unfold with constraints section of the SOLDIER tutorial. The instructions say select Polygons > Unfold > Options. Then set Unfold constraint to horizontal. Then click Apply and Close. My version of Maya has no such option in the Unfold UVs Options window. What am I supposed to do? Thanks!

Hi sheriff12,

Can you get in the habit of clicking "accept as solution" on the answers that work for you? (You asked a couple of questions recently that you forgot to do this on.) It helps others find answers quicker.

Thanks!

Sorry! I'll try to remember.

I can't test this theory but make sure you are using the 'Legacy' options and not the 'Unfold3D' options in the options window. There is a button at the top of the options window to change between them.

I'll try using the LEGACY setting this afternoon. Then, I will let you know what happened. Thanks!

Thanks! That did the trick. Autodesk ought to revise the tutorial to include this bit of information.
