In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Problem with snapping...
I ran into a little problem somehow:
Half an hour ago I fired up Maya, just to learn that some of my snapping features are gone!
This is not the first time, and I don't have the slightest idea why it happens.
When I press c,x or v to activate temporarily snapping, it displays the snapping handle in the center of the manipulator, but if I try to move just along one axis, the snapping doesn't work.
If I drag the center handle, everything is fine...
The same thing happens when I switch on snapping modes from the status line.
It's somewhere in the userPrefs.mel, but I don't want to delete it and start all over again.
Someone here with a good idea?

Then you can use the snap functions properly.
Correct me if im wrong here, but I think this is it.

I had the move tool set to object...
Just reset the tool to world space coordinate and you'll be fine!
