Change the order of nodes |
When Maya draws or renders the scene, it looks at each node in the scene in order and applies the node’s effect (for example, creating an object or applying a rotation) to the scene. In certain limited situations, the order in which Maya evaluates nodes can affect the final result.
To view the nodes in order
- In Outliner (Window > Outliner), select Display > Sort Order > Scene Hierarchy.
- In the Hypergraph (Window > Hypergraph), select Graph >Scene Hierarch and then Options > Layout > Automatic Layout.
To change the order of nodes in the Outliner
Drag a node with 
and drop it between nodes.
As you drag, Maya draws a single line to indicate that dropping the node results in reordering, or a double line (above and below the target) to indicate that dropping the node makes it a child of the target node.
To change the order of nodes in the Hypergraph
Hold 
, drag a node with , and drop it on the node you want it to precede in the order.
