maya move uv shells on top of each other.

malcolm

Anyone got a tool or workflow for taking a bunch of uv shells and moving them all to the 0-1 uv space but have them over lap on top of each other. This would be the same functionality as using automatic map with overlap turned on.

Found this script which has a feature to stack shells.

Hello Malcolm,

Does the script you found work with automaticly stacking identicals shell on top of each other ? That would save me a loooooot of time ;-)

if the UV shell snaps in maya worked like max it would be too easy

Too bad retain component spacing snapping is broken in maya 8.5

cornu, yes it does stack them exactly on top of eachother if they are the same shell.

Objects that are going to be overlapped and have the sae shell I just project at the same time so they overlap from the start. I also use transfer attributes alot for that kindof thing, ill check that script out to see how that works.
