Hi Jill,
Sofimage has one preference page to set fps, the only time I've ever had a 
problem is when a scene with an incorrect frame rate gets merged in. No need 
for two completely disconnected preference locations to do it. This is an 
example of why maya needs rethinking. 
Clearly what Ben described is the answer to the specific issue (thanks Ben) but 
would you agree that this messy and disconnected  approach to UI is something 
that really should have been addressed in the market leader? 
When will the meat of the humanize maya project be available to see? 

cheers,
Andi
P.s I quite like the default scene setting in Maya..... I made a button in soft 
to do the same thing so Maya is one click ahead as far as that's concerned ;-)

So Ben is right. This separation of unit settings for the current scene and 
your own unit preferences was put in place to address an issue customers had 
where they’d load someone else’s scene and all of sudden find that their units, 
fps, etc. had all changed when they next created a new scene. For your new 
scene preferences, go to New Scene (option box) and set things the way you 
normally want them to be on creating a new scene. If you then do File -> Save 
Preferences, you’ll be OK even in the extremely unlikely event that you should 
crash before exiting.  Hope this helps,Jill From:

Subject: Re: more maya...... Its a easy fix. go, file, new scene, click the 
little box set it once in there. Once you open one new scene from there all 
scenes will be it until you change it. If you crash before you close maya you 
will need to redo it. Ben On 4 November 2014 13:39, Sebastien Sterling
