Hi,
I've been having a few problems in Maya 2016 recently. When creating a light and enabling the mental ray area light setting, maya doesn't let me focus of the light.
Before enabling the mental ray "area light" checkbox and pressing the F key, maya focuses on the light. However, as soon as I check the box and press F to focus, Maya goes all black and doesn't let me see the scene or do anything unless quiting and restarting Maya again.
I am currently using a Macbook Pro (Late 2013), running OSX Yosemite.
Any help would be great!
Thanks again,
Liam
