Need Help. Transformation tools not working!!

[Anonymous]

Hey there. 

I got this little puppy here and when I select vertices, edges or faces I can't translate, rotate or scale them anymore. When I select it in object mode I still can use this tools. 

Don't know what I did that that happened. I already reinstalled Maya.Reseted the workspace. copied it into a new scene. Made a new project. Nothing worked. I also created a new object and it didn't work in the new object either. 

I would really appreciate your help, I need this little guy für my examinaton in University.

hi!

The file is OK and works fine here.

It seems you changed some settings for the tools (which are not reset with a re-installation of Maya).

Reset your preferences.

Rename the folder prefs in folder 2017 to something like prefs_backup, or to reset everything, the folder 2017 to 2017 _backup (or even the maya folder to maya_backup). Maya creates new folders (don't copy preferences from previous Maya versions). Detailed at:
