View Full Version : Quick LW9 Layout/Surface Editor Question

Let's say I'm in Layout, and I'm creating a surface with the Surface Editor. I'm trying to set a color in the Basic tab, and I slip with the mouse and inadvertantly hit the "E" button, and bring up the Graph Editor.

Is there any way to recover from this and get back to the point where I can select a color? I can't make the "E" button turn off once I've hit it once. I've tried everything I can think of... :o

Thanks in advance!

shift-click on the "E" (or "T") button and it will be cleared.


You using a tablet? Happens to me all the time. ;)

(Don't forget: love the manual that came with the soft. It's like dancing with the one you brung.)

Thanks very much; I knew it had to be something simple...appreciate the fast reply!

(Was the answer in the manual? I'm so embarrassed...)

I just got my copy of "Inside Lightwave 8" (even though I have LW9), and I'm going through the part on surface editing now. :thumbsup:
