maya 处理 linux 鼠标变"X"

Linux and GNOME

The following are some issues that you might encounter when using Linux and GNOME with Maya.

Mouse pointer appears as a black “X”

Sometimes when you right-click and the mouse pointer becomes a black “X” it remains so for the Maya session and even after restarting Maya.

Workaround

Set the environment variable MAYA_MMSET_DEFAULT_XCURSOR; the value does not matter. If this variable is set, Maya will set the cursor to the left pointing arrow Cursor on exiting the Marking Menu/Hotbox.

When exiting the hotbox with the workaround already in place, the cursor may remain as the right-pointing red arrow. To remedy this, right-click the scene after exiting the hotbox. The cursor becomes the default left-pointing black arrow. However, the red arrow won’t show up again when you enter the hotbox until you log out and log in again.

Marking Menu/Hotbox

When using GNOME window manager on Linux, on exiting from the Marking Menu/Hotbox the cursor may be reset to the default desktop "X" cursor.

Workaround

Set the environment variable MAYA_MMSET_DEFAULT_XCURSOR; the value does not matter. If this variable is set, Maya will set the cursor to the left pointing arrow Cursor on exiting the Marking Menu/Hotbox.

When exiting the hotbox with the workaround already in place, the cursor may remain as the right-pointing red arrow. To remedy this, right-click the scene after exiting the hotbox. The cursor becomes the default left-pointing black arrow. However, the red arrow won’t show up again when you enter the hotbox until you log out and log in again.

Blank Getting Root Frames progress window

When you solve in Maya Live with the GNOME window manager, the first Getting Root Frames progress window goes blank and stays in the screen as long as Maya is running. This blank window is present in all applications.
