Changes in UV Editor not saving.

[aayush_mech6252]

Hi.

I am using Maya 2022. I try to create some changes in my UV Editor like changing the grid line colour or docking my UV toolkit on the right. But when I close Maya and restart it, the UV editor reverts back to the old way. The toolkit is undocked and the colours are back to the default. The moments I click on grid settings, it immediately updates to the colours I had assigned. I have to do this every time I open Maya.

I have tried deleting all the prefs and start from scratch with totally new preferences but the problem persists. Help me out please!!

Thank you

Same story in M2019, and this has been reported repeatedly.

But this just happened out of the blue. For me, it was not like that a few months ago. So wierd! 😐

I guess it is user settings-related, apparently those files corrupt over time. When Maya installed afresh, most of those things work as intended, for a while. I've got several more annoying issues, that could be solved by cold install, unfortunately I can't afford spending time on making MY preferences and plug-ins work again, especially if it breaks so easily. Bummer.
