maya induction

So maya! 3 years of this it seems ok, lots of buttons though i find the best way for me to learn is someone to show me and i take screen shots so i remember more and if i'm stuck later i can always revert back to them. I do have lots and lots of screenshots :)
So heres the first lot...

so heres what maya looks like when its starts up. 3 years of using this...
here we go!

how to create an object

 messing around with move, scale and rotate

here's the buttons for move, rotate and scale
they are located on the light hand side of the screen

quick selection tool

shadows and lines

how to change maya system settings select the red button in the bottom right hand corner

how to change the dots in faces

REMEMBER- save it as a project file when you transfer this over to hardrive. 
TAKE  THE WHOLE THING NOT BITS

this quickly takes the pivot back to the centre


right click hold - faces




heres the truck i made with the tutorial matt gave us, i found snapping really difficult and fiddly like everyone else but I'm sure after a few more try's i'll be snapping away
