Users can pick from five display styles for input objects, and adjust the colour and opacity of their wireframes.Īnother useful-looking new feature is the option to use Smooth Mesh subdivided versions of objects as inputs for Boolean operations: something that can be toggled from the Boolean stack. In addition, a new Boolean stack provides a central location for editing Booleans, with input objects shown as layers to make complex assemblies easier to manage, and changes displayed in the viewport in real time. The software also now supports a range of new Boolean operations, including Slice, Hole Punch, Cut Out and Split Edges, as well as the existing Difference and Union operations. The release also overhauls Maya’s Boolean modelling tools, adding a new Boolean node, intended to enable users to “create and edit Boolean operations in fewer clicks”.
More intuitive and versatile Boolean modelling workflow The feature, which replaces the existing Grease Pencil tool, provides “more drawing tools for text and shapes”, plus a layer system for annotations.Īs well as shot review, the toolset is aimed at “pre-production animation blocking”, with users also able to retime or transform Blue Pencil annotations, as well as simply to move them on the timeline. New features in Maya 2023 include Blue Pencil, a new toolset for creating 2D annotations in the viewport.
The Bifrost multiphysics plugin gets Bifrost USD, a new system for creating and editing USD assets using the Bifrost graph, opening up a range of new scene layout workflows.īlue Pencil: a revamped, more animation-friendly viewport annotation system The release introduces Blue Pencil, a revamped version of Maya’s viewport annotation toolset, and overhauls the software’s Boolean modelling and retopology systems.
