Hello, before in 8.1 you could select an edge, hold down alt and extrude it, let go of the alt key and then move the mouse to change the angle of the extrude.

Now, obviously in 8.2 the alt key is the new view modifier key (love it!) but, now I can't extrude edges the same way, has the alt function for extrude gone to another key (can't find it) or is it now no longer available?

Also, it means can't do interactive weighting either.

happy 200th post I would tell you this but am too lazy to reinstall cinema and bodypaint and all that so I don't have 8.2 yet.

Even though i did DL it.

CTRL-SHIFT-ALT now, and then release ALTto rotate, but keep CTRL-SHIFT pressed in.

Reason for this is the new maya navigation system uses alt so alt as a modifier by itself won't work.

Thanks JIII - hadn't noticed! - time for a new avatar maybe.

Also, Kaiskai thanks very much, the boys at maxon should have put that in the 8.2 addendum (I did read it).
