Replicating this as described I got the results I think you were expecting. I've been unable to repeat the anomoly.
And did the "wave" occur on the Z & X axis or just Z or X? I'd also be curious if you had any kind of parenting relationship that might have affected the smooth direction. But I can't imagine what. Did you perform this in a clean scene? What version of maya?

Maya is full of surprises. Here's my story today: I wanted to create a wavy surface so I got a polygon grid and selected every second points and translated in Y. Then I applied a smooth. The result was bizarre: only the edges were wavy shaped, the rest was flat. I was not happy so I undid the smooth with CTRL+Z. I should have recovered my grid with half of its points translated in Y... But no. Some border vertices were translated in Y, all the rest of the grid was flat... And of course my selection was lost. I tried this a second time to be sure I didn't lose my mind and I got the same result. Great job Maya. So I did in in XSI and exported an obj. David ------ Softimage Mailing List.
