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.

Problem with snapping when extruding
im new to maya, its pretty different to what im used to, im doing the interior design tutorial, im following the video but there some bits that arent working,
im trying to move part of a rectangle down and i want it to snap to an edge loop but it wont work its attached to all the other geometry in the space and it moves it all, in the video she uses vertices all the time and she merges them but that doesnt seem to do anything on mine?
ill be grateful for help thanks alot

For vert, curve and grid snapping you hold the v, c, and x key while middle mouse gesturing over the component or grid you want to snap too. You can constrain the movement to an axis by highlighting the axis you wish to strain to on the move manipulator before snapping.
