Its really annoying but you can now turn it off!! go to the
Preferences, then 'Selection' - there are options for 'Selection Child
Highlighting' , turn it to 'Never Highlight'.

Hey Guys
So I'm getting into Maya, and so far it's horrible.
I realize that Maya animators must be more passionate about 3D
than me, because there is no way I would have put up with this
shit for the last 10 years.
Rant aside, I was hoping someone could help me make sense of a few
things.
1: selecting hierarchies:

green when I only select the top node. What is the benefit of

I also find that when I select multiple objects in a hierarchy,
the second last thing I selected goes white, but the thing I
select stays green. this makes it hard to tell weather I selected
the object or not.
Am I using it wrong?
2: Is there a way to interactively see my frames rendering? I know
I can fcheck or load the rendered frames in aftreFX, but this
doesn't help if my frames takes 20 min a frame.
3: I assume the outliner is there to do what the explorer in soft
does, but half the things in my scene is missing. Is there a
comprehensive scene navigator where I can see everything, like we
can in the explorer?
Thanks, I'm going to stop here before I get on the drama-lama.
