Every once in a while when I'm working in the UV editor withing Maya I will want to scale my scale tool will not show the little squares and the center and ends of the tool. Because of this, I am unable to scale my UV. The only way I have found to get it back to working properly is to restart maya. What's going on here?

edit*** Looking at it again, it's the same with all the tools. see picture

try deleting your prefs..

or use this tool....select the uvs you want and under edit polygons>move component.
then it appears with a multi transform manipulator. could solve to problem temporarily.

i was just having a similiar problem. tinker with your vid card settings and switch your resolution to 800x600 and then back up to whatever you have it at now.

thanks for all of your suggestions guys, I try 'em and see what works. Yeah I do have an ATI, but I've been one of the lucky few that haven't had an problems with it in that past :applause: But it sounds like that could be the problem now. We'll see, thanks again.
