Outliners help?

Anonymous
Not applicable

I am technically new on maya modelling, I've been modelling mostly using 3dmax. The concept seemed to be pretty similar although one of the difference I noticed is how in maya there is no object "modifier" tab to see what have you done to your object. What I did found in maya though is that there's sometimes outliner created after certain modifying? Anyway basically I still don't understand how outliner works and why there are tons of outliners for a single object. I can't delete any of them because it would delete the object entirely. Is there a way to just collapse the outliner?

 

I'm sorry it's kinda hard to explain, but please do take a look at the attachment I put, I use maya 2017 student version and tell me what's wrong with my outliners. I really want to make it as clean/organized as possible

Hi!

You need to delete history.

 

Edit -> Delete ... -> History

Ahh yeah it works, thank you!! It's confusing that maya would save every
single transformation on the outliners though I dont see practical use for
it

Hi!

 

As long as they are part of the history they are needed (and can be used).
