Paint Vertex Properties Options Missing


#1

Hello,

So I’m trying to put some wrinkles into nCloth pants, following along with the Mastering Maya 2013. When putting in the wrinkles it asks me to adjust the min to -1 so I can make indented wrinkles, sounds simple. But for some reason I type in -1 and it just stays at zero. Also the painting attributes section in the options is extremely limited not showing any of the options the book does. I also can’t adjust color feedback or the color min/max…WOW ok so as I was typing this I wanted to double check what wasn’t available and all the options are back and everything is peachy. But I still have the question as to why that would happen. I’ve been trying to solve this problem for two hours. Any way in the future I can avoid it?

Sometimes that tool needs a maya restart to work correctly.
Before attempting to enter -1 for the value, set the min value to -1 or lower. If it is set to zero (the default) you cant enter a value less than that).
