Missing polymodeler window

[tp247408]

I am not sure what I have done, but it seems the tab that allows me to change the polyshapes attributes is missing and I cant access it anywhere. I just what to add a cap and reduce the sides of the cylinder to 9. This is so frustrating and any help I can find online seems to be for 2015 version of Maya, any help with 2020 version and finding the missing window. I think its construction history?

Hi!

You need to enable construction history before you create the object.

That's what I thought, its probably super simple but I don't know how to enable it.

It is on the top of the menu Mar, expand the little arrow. You will see his clock

Find this spot in your posted image and enable the button with clockface.

If this helped, mark @mspeer 's post as Solved.

Hi!

If you search in the Maya online help for the color marked feature it's the first search result,

also  when searching in google for "Maya construction history" it's the first result (at least here).

The Maya online help also includes an image that shows the menu.

There should be no need to post redundant information here in the forum which unnecessary blows up disk space usage and is not economical (also small things matter).

If the information would be not be easy to be found I would have posted more details, so please check the Maya online help for certain information first.

Of course if you still have problems to find the right information, please ask back and I will post a link or more details.
