Change the color of the falloff area
You
can change the colors Maya uses to display a weighted falloff’s
color feedback with the Falloff color option. This is useful if
the default colors are hard to see against your mesh’s texture or
shader. By default, Maya uses a ramp from black to red to yellow.
To
change the color of the falloff area
- Open
the Tool Settings editor.
- Turn
on the Soft Select option under Soft
Selection.
- Select
one of the circles above the Falloff color ramp.
- Adjust
the falloff of the ramp by dragging the circle left or right.
- Adjust
the shade of the current color by dragging the Color slider
left or right.
- Change
the current color by clicking the colored icon next to the label Color and
selecting a specific color from the Color Chooser.
- You
can add a color to the ramp by clicking on the ramp itself.
An extra colored circle will appear above the
ramp.
- You
can remove a color from the ramp by clicking the box underneath
the ramp corresponding to that color.
You can also turn off the colors by turning
off Viewport color in the Soft Selection Tool
Settings editor.
