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.

Weird Viewing Problem

Alright, I'll try to explain this as best I can. My view panels are set up as the 4 default panes. Now when I use the space bar to full-view a certian pane, all the geometry dissapears. The only way to get it back is to select was is presumbly there (I can't see it) and then hit 4 or 5 to turn shading back on. It's only happening when I full-view the pane, and not when I go back out to the four views. Has anyone seen something like this before? I seem to remember a post with something like this a long time ago, but search couldn't find anything. Alright, thanks a bunch.

Oh yeah, now that I realized I had updated my drivers in the past few days. I'll get the new ones. Thanks.

Before you mess around with your drivers on your card, select the camera for that panel and go to camera clipping in the AE and try adjusting the near and far clipping before tearing your machine apart!!

Thanks, but it was a driver problem. Got the new ones from nVidia and everything's alright.
