I'm working with 4.5, completely new to Maya, and i have a problem that's pissing me off...
I'm trying this tutorial (http://www.highend3d.com/maya/tutorials/patch2/) , and I'm supposed to let the beginnings and ends snap to eachother, but it doesn't seem to work properly -- when I zoom in after I have ended a curve very close to (or on my screen: on) the curve, the ends don't meet.
The tutorial tells me to press c everytime I do this, but I figured that's just the hotkey associated with the 'snap to curves' function, so I click that icon before I start.
anyway, it doesn't work! Right now I have 2 points snapped, don't know how I did it, but it just happened, but then the end of the last curve to close a patch doesn't snap to the beginning of the first...
*sigh*
any help would be appreciated! (even help to let the endpoints snap after creation by some kind of "Merge Control Vertex" function i can't find)
thanks!
