Hi,

I’m running into a problem with Maya 2012 that I have spent hours trying to solve. At this point I give up and am looking for help.

I was in the process of modeling a car with all my image-planes in their camera all set up. Got the outline of the car going fairly well until I realized in my front view I couldn’t select vertexes in the back unless I change view to back (which i dont have an image plane in).

If I go into perspective view I can select anyone obviously, but switching back to front view with those vertexes selected takes away my move tool and anything else I try to use in that view.

This seems to be a problem with my image planes because selecting all sides of objects in all views works until the image planes are put into place.

I have Camera based selection off, Tweak mode off, backface culling off.

Any help would be appreciated I’m going crazy.

Sorry if this seems to be a newb question. I am somewhat one lol

Problem solved by moving ortho front camera away from origin in outliner.

Thankyou
