Maya and NVIDIA Cards

Working on Maya scene and it would start flickering and jumping around the scene whenever you try to interact with the 3d view? Here's a simple fix. Go to your Nvidia display properties tab and turn OFF the Threaded Optimization setting.


If you are usinge Nvidia GeForce graphics cards/drivers and find that the Maya scene view does not refresh correctly, you can set the following environment variable in the Maya.env file to reduce flickering/stale view that may occur:

MAYA_GEFORCE_SKIP_OVERLAY=1

Enjoy.
