Documentation

To view the Mudbox documentation online you must have Internet access (fees may apply). The Mudbox documentation is supported using the following Web browser applications:

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer® version 6.0 or later
  • Mozilla FireFox version 2.0 or later
NoteIt is recommended that you use Mudbox software with either a Wacom tablet with stylus or a three-button mouse. Otherwise, access to all features and hotkeys is not possible. For best tablet support it is recommended that you use the latest Wacom drivers for your particular tablet. Before installing a new software driver, it is imperative to first uninstall the old driver, then reboot your computer before installing the new one, as per Wacom’s instructions. Failure to do so may impact performance of the hardware.
