Maya 2017 - Unfold not rescaling UVs for consistent texel scale
polycounter lvl 12
Going from Maya 2016 to Maya 2017 I noticed that the Unfold UVs command (UV Editor window --> Polygons menu --> Unfold) no longer re-scales different shells of the same mesh to have consistent texel scale, whether I use Unfold3D or Legacy.
Has anyone encountered this bug? Has anyone found a fix or workaround? I asked on the Autodesk forum, and Autodesk Tech Support verified that this is a bug with no fix yet. Hard to believe this hasn't been detected previously, so I'm thinking maybe it's a weird incompatibility with other settings or hardware?
I know that there are many ways to unwrap and scale UVs, but I teach an intro/mid level texturing class and would like students to be familiar with the unfold function.

Any insight much appreciated. Thanks!
