Hi.
I have an educ. version of maya 7. For some reason my cameras disappear from the all viewports when I select nurb objects. (with only polygons in the scene everything is fine). The cameras will briefly appear in the margins of the viewport when tumbling etc. Any help would be much appreciated.

may be a Maya PLE version glitch.

But I have a registered educational version of Maya 7 unlimited.
I reported this to Alias's support center but as a 'bronze' patron I am not sure what to expect in the way of replies. I did try reloading the whole thing but still no luck.
I should also mention I was trying some camera related mels (downloads) a few days ago but did not notice any problems at the time. ???

Problem solved. I updated the driver for my video adapter. Its OpenGL , intergrated on my intel board. Older versions of Maya seemed to work fine on this machine so it took me awhile to suspect problem due to my setup.

Anyways, thanks Iron_tick for replying to my msg.
