Blender 2.613 - bugs with maya presets

Support Basics & Interface
1

I just got blender 2.61.3 and I have problems with maya presets:

  • I cannot rotate the camera when in edit mode
  • X or Delete don’t work
  • Shift+A to add stuff doesn’t work

There might be even more. It is working in the 2.61.0.
Can anyone confirm that it’s a bug (and maybe have a look at it :wink: )?

Thank you :slight_smile:

I tried really hard to work with the Maya preset but in the end, I found it much MUCH easier to just learn the Blender way of doing things. I even eventually switched to right button selecting because I use the 3-button mouse emulation for my wacom.

I know this is not what you want to hear but I urge you to give it a chance. Even if you’re using Maya with Blender, you’ll get used to the changes and find that there is a method to their madness.

I understand what you mean. That’s also the reason why I stick with official Maya hotkeys, and not with more “maya identical” hotkeys configuration like Demohero’s one, because I feel it doesn’t match with the way Blender was created and thought.
Official maya preset is just the right amount of maya in blender, to my opinion.

I wouldn’t mind learning Blender hotkeys if I only was working on Blender. The thing is that I work at least 12 hours per day with Maya, and I cannot reset my brain just for the few hours I spend working on blender :slight_smile:
