Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

No shape inputs

Hey forum, had a slight problem with Maya.
I've been making some polygon objects from simple shapes like squares and cylinders, as that's my preferred way to model. However, I can't seem to access the inputs to manipulate the amount of subdivisions for a shape. It's just vanished. Is there any way to turn inputs on/off that I might have hit by accident?

Starting to wonder if it ever existed in the first place ;_;

I'm sorry but you are dealing with a noob here. I remember accidentally deleting ALL by type > history. Is that the problem? If so, how to reverse?

Edit: Cool, figured it out. You just saved my portfolio piece user added image cheers for the simple answer.
