Selection of control curves only works at control point

Support
#1

I’m experiencing something strange when I build my rig. I can only select the controls in an area where there is a control point. For example, if I have a control that is a square shape with 4 control points (one at each corner) I can only drag-select that control if I do it at a corner, if I try to select the control at the line between the points it doesn’t work.
I’ve created my own nurbs curves in the same maya file and confirmed that I can drag select those controls anywhere, not just at a place where there is a control point.

Has anyone else experienced this or know what is going on?

Hmm, I just restarted my maya session and the problem has gone away. So perhaps it’s just a bug. I’ll keep an eye on it and if I come to any conclusions I will post them here.

Sounds like you ended up in some kind of component (or knot) selection mode. Maya has so many sneaky marking menus that are easy to accidentally trigger.

Thanks, i’ll poke around for that setting.
