Performing commands with the modeling toolkit

Anonymous
Not applicable
In maya 2015 when I use the modeling toolkit to perform a bevel or extrude I finish the command by hitting Enter. When I perform a next bevel or extrude it will do this with the same settings as the previously performed one. How does this work in maya 2016? Hitting Enter has no effect and every following extrude or bevel will be at default settings. Thank you.

To save the settings from one extrusion or bevel to the next, you have to enter them in the Edit Mesh->Extrude->Options window or Edit Mesh->Bevel->Options window. (Not sure why they didn't make the pop-up settings box work the same way.)

You can end these operations by either clicking in an open part of the viewport, or hitting the 'q' key.

Note that once you have entered your desired settings from the menu, you can just hit the "g" key to quickly repeat the last extrusion or bevel.

Hello pshwayka,

 

Thank you for your reply.

The automatic settings remembering by the toolkit was kinda handy. I thought I was missing something not being able to do it with 2016.

 

Greetings.
