Maya PLE requires a three-button mouse to access all features of the application. However, if you are hesitant to buy a $50-$70 rodent for use with the free learning edition of the world most advanced 3D editor, there is a workaround.

Locate and edit your MAYA.ENV file. Open the file with BBEdit, SimpleText or any other plain-text editor. Place this line:

MAYA_MAC_BUTTON_MAP = 1
into the file and save. Then use your mouse and the option and command keys.

[Editor's note: I haven't tried this myself yet; I'm just now installing PLE from the MacAddict monthly CD.]
