Attribute Presets not Showing Up


#1

Hey guys/gals,

Bumped into this one recently, and i haven’t been able to figure it out.
Also did a search around, and found a single thread dealing with NodePreset to create and store preset data through a script command but the replies in that thread did not help at all.

The problem is what the title says. No matter what i do, maya does not seem to show saved attributes in the “Presets” list of the attribute editor. The presets are being saved to disk, and they can be loaded using the “applyPresetToNode” command, but they just refuse to show up in the interface. I swear, it is the first time ever i bump into this issue, and while not a show stopper, it is incredibily frustrating.

I have also deleted all maya prefs folders, used a custom maya_preset_path to store them in a different location, uninstalled and reinstalled a clean maya. None of that helped.

Has anyone ever experienced this before?

I saw some of this in Maya 2013, but not in 2015 or 2012. Which version of Maya are you using?

Maya 2016. I’ve also installed the sp3 update to no avail.

Eeek! This started happening to me in Maya 2015 just recently, and I searched for answers only to be directed here, of course, where we don’t have any answers!

If anyone figured this out since, please chime in. Pretty annoying, that the .mels are being saved but Maya won’t show anything.
