I all of a sudden have white shapes when modeling. Does anyone know how to turn this off and what it is?

could you explain that further? when modeling what? maybe some screenshot? otherwise it'll be difficult to help you.

that sort of thing happened to me fella. do the white boxes go back to normal wen u unselect them? and have u done anything to do with animation or dynamics? if so - what i did was - change the the particles from "points" to "Clouds (SW)".

that helped me i hope it helps u.

whats white, is it what your working on? you could check your default shader attributes, maybe soemthing is turned up way hi like your ambience.

i think i know what he's talking about. i had this problem with particle instancing on maya 4.5. in my situation i'm almost certain it was just a conflict with the video card. my shaded objects would just turn a flat white every once in awhile. i think i managed by turning on wireframe on shaded in the shaded viewports. didn't have this problem with maya 4 and don't have it with maya 5... but i'm running maya 5 on a different machine with a different vid card. anyways, i had the problem with maya 4.5 under winXP with a geforce3 ti500 video card. any of that info similar to yours?
