var.	var.	Interactive Split Tool incorrectly identified as Split Polygon Tool In a number of instances in Chapters 3 through 6, The Interactive Split tool is referred to by its name in prior versions of Maya, the Split Polygon tool. For every instance of "Split Polygon" replace with "Interactive Split". The error occurs on the following pages: Chapter 3: page 99 page 100 page 103 (also see errata entry specifically for pages 103-104) page 104, captions to Figure 3.65 and 3.66 page 105 page 108 Chapter 4: page 128, step 14 page 129, step 15 page 132 (also see errata entry specifically for page 132) page 133 page 138 Chapter 5: page 208 (also see errata entry specifically for page 208) page 209, step 4 Chapter 6: page 236, steps 1, 2 and 3 page 248, step 6	6/9/11	1st
3	103-4	Text correction: Instructions for Interactive Split Tool Step 3. incorrectly identifies the Interactive Split Tool as the Split Polygon tool. In addition, the final three sentences of the instruction, beginning with "Drag the mouse..." should read as follows: "Drag the mouse back and forth and you can see when the Interactive Split tool snaps to the middle of the edge. Release the mouse at the snap point and that will place the point in the middle of that edge." The first sentence of Step 4. on page 104 repeats the erroneous identification of the tool, and should also be changed to read as follows: "Use the snapping to place Interactive Split points in the middle of the remaining three edges of the box to create a horizontal split line in the middle of the box, as shown in Figure 3.67."	6/14/11	1st
3	104	Text correction: Error in caption for Figure 3.65 The caption should read "Click and drag the Interactive Split tool on this edge of the box, and place the point in the middle."	6/14/11	1st
4	132	Text correction: Interactive Split tool incorrectly identified as Split Polygon tool Replace all instances of "Split Polygon" with "Interactive Split". Additionally, in the first paragraph under the heading The Split Polygon Tool, delete the final two sentences, beginning "Notice at lower left..."	6/14/11	1st
5	208	Text correction: Instructions for using the Split Polygon/Interactive Split tool Replace all instances of "Split Polygon" with "Interactive Split". In addition, change the last sentence in step 2. to read as follows: "When you do this, center the new edge by using the snapping to place the split in the middle along each edge."	6/14/11	1st
