How to merge two uv sets into a single uv set in Maya
Upon merging together two meshes I've ended up with two uv sets, somehow. I don't know what happened. But I want to take the uvs in UVW and combine those with UVW1. I can't seem to make this work. -

So if I do that, say copy UVW1 to UVW, then all of the existing contents of UVW or overwritten with the contents of UVW1. I want to merge the two into one set. -

Thanks. That was exactly the issue. Strange thing - After copying the uvs from one set into another, if I then delete the original set that was copied, those same uv shells in the target uv set disappear too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -

However, if you switch to UV component mode, select all the UVs in set UVW1 and then "Copy… -

Select the faces in UVW1, swap to UVW, unselect everything there, swap back to UVW1, copy into UVW. -
Re: How to merge two uv sets into a single uv set in Maya
Looks like this has been solved, but I had same issues for awhile before finding a reliable solution. That second UV set usually comes from Zbrush, for me. What I do is select the UV components from whichever set has fewer shells and copy them into the other set. Switch to the new set to double check everything is there,… -

That'll probably be history. Delete it first
