Setting the Path on Windows
The path needs to be set up so that when Harmony launches Maya, it knows exactly where to look for the application. On Windows, this can be set up using an environment variable.
- From Start, right-click on Computer and select Properties.
- From the Computer Properties dialog box, select Advanced System Settings.
The System Properties dialog box opens.
- In the System Properties dialog box, click Environment Variables.
The Environment Variables dialog box opens.
- The first variable to set up is the Maya path. In the System Variables section, browse for the Path variable and select it.
- Click Edit.
The Edit System Variable dialog box opens.
- In the Variable value field, add a semicolon (;) at the end of the last path.
- Copy the path to the bin folder of Maya following the semicolon.
For example: For Autodesk Maya 2011 on Windows, the path would be as follows:
C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2011\bin
NOTE: You can browse to the installation folder of Maya and copy the complete path to thebin
folder from the browser window to ensure you have the exact path.
- Click OK.
