Can anyone help? Thanks.



I am a 3D animation hopeful. Just need to learn in order to make that happen. My interests include photography, music and plastic model building.

Hi Jim
Do you have ‘any’ menus visible on your screen?
Are you able to access the ‘Display’ menu at the very top of your screen?

If not, does holding down the spacebar open up hotbox on your screen? If you can access ‘Display’, try ‘UI Elements - Restore UI Elements’

report back…

No the top line isn’t there in the hotbox either. even when I hit the spacebar the top line has Bonus/ Tools/ Help.

Thanks.

I’ve got the screenshots on the CPU. Send me a pm with your email and I’ll email them both to you. If you can send it to me so you can get it at home as I have several late assignments to work on that are already late. I need to get this fixed. I have been trying in vain to find the preferences file and cannot. My only other recourse is too um reload the program AGAIN. I have done that once already. I was hoping to not have to do that.

Nate I even reinstalled Maya and the problem still isn’t fixed.

Try deleting your preferences file:

(Windows) drive:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\maya\version#\prefs
(Mac OS X) Users/username/Library/Preference/Autodesk/maya/version#/prefs
(Linux) ~username/maya/2010/prefs
