Thanks for the feedback Tim. I think all riggers will agree that this one has spawn trouble when it shipped ^^ Actually, in this case, I think the balance between pros/cons was overlooked. It's obviously a good feature, but it changes so much how rigs behave when turned on! I speak just as I think, but maybe that a mecanism (such as the tips screen that appears when you first launch maya, the one that gives you the basics for tumbling the camera, etc..), that compares the actual userPrefs with the new features added in each release, and tells that this tool now has this feature, could be nice...
Anyway, as I said, thanks for the feedback. Nicolas P.S. If I understand, you work at Autodesk, and if it's the case, I know I'm dreaming right now, but without going against any NDA, do you have any info you could share about if some more ice style nodes/philosophy is in preparation for future maya releases? This is the kind of stuff that seems to be spreading a lot recently. I think of standalone initiatives like Soup or Coral... 2011/10/27 Tim Fowler <[email protected]> > So I asked a designer and he agreed that it should probably default to > off.
