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.

why won't my scale tool work while I am animating?

Hello,

I have been experiencing difficulties in maya recently and I hope some one can help.
I am making a animation where at one point there is a bouncing ball. Everything is good until the ball comes down and I try to make it squish. When I use the scale tool to make the squish, I key frame it and play it back and everything is there except for the squish. I have tried another scene and it still hasn't worked. Please help, I have three days left in my trial and I cannot finish it without the squish.user added image !

How are you keyframing it? Make sure that the options for adding a keyframe include scale. Alternately, you can select the scale channels and right click > key selected.
