topic Maya Bevel Behaviour in Maya Modeling Forum https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-modeling-forum/maya-bevel-behaviour/m-p/5806097#M24068 Hi I am new to 3D modelling and am trialing Maya 2016. I am just playing around trying to get a handle on the basics but I have hit a wall with the bevel tool. I have Googled in the hope of finding an explanation of what I am experiencing but the only forum entries I can find just mention that the Maya bevel tool can be problematic. I can't seem to find anything directly related to my issue. Apolgies if this has been answered elsewhere. I create a simple polygon cube then select an edge and bevel it. I then separately select another edge on the opposite side of the face and bevel that too. I now have two seperate bevels (polybevel1 and polybevel2). When I delete polybevel2 I am left with polybevel1 (as expected) but if I delete polybevel1 instead (with the expectation of leaving polybevel2 intact) polybevel 2 suddenly moves to another edge entirely! Could someone please explain if this is normal behavoir and if so why? I notice in the node editor that the output of polybevel1 is connected to the input of polybevel2 so I am assumung that polybevel2 is inheriting something from polybevel1 and that when it gets deleted it throws everything off. Whatever is going on seems very unituitive to me but I would really like to understand this behaviour. Many thanks if you can help James Mon, 07 Sep 2015 12:46:49 GMT Anonymous 2015-09-07T12:46:49Z
