If you have another documentation language set installed you can click Other and type a language/dialect code in the Specify language box. Help Location Local Maya displays online help locally. Remote Maya displays online help from the URL in the URL box. This can be a help system on an accessible network drive. For more information, see"Maya Help overview" on page 404. Display preferences Performance Fast interaction Turns Fast Interaction on to improve performance by displaying fewer geometric entities (such as polygons). The default is off. Max. texture display res If you find a large slowdown in performance when editing images larger than 1K by 1K, this can be due to insufficient video card memory to display textures at that resolution. This option allows you to set the maximum size of textures used for display. It is recommended that you restart Maya for these settings to take effect. Baked viewport textures You can set the slider to display scene view textures in a trade-off between fast and high quality. Notes • If the scene has only hardware textures, this slider has no effect. • The scene's textures are not automatically updated with any changes; you'll need to force an update; for example, by reloading the scene. • The only textures affected are the ones set to use the default texture quality but whose 2d texture placement options are not handled in hardware (for example, use stagger or some other option the card/drivers don't support in hardware).
