Synopsis

subdLayoutUV [-caching boolean] [-constructionHistory boolean] [-flipReversed boolean] [-layout int] [-layoutMethod int] [-name string] [-nodeState int] [-percentageSpace float] [-rotateForBestFit int] [-scale int] [-separate int] [-worldSpace boolean]

subdLayoutUV is undoable, queryable, and editable.

Return value

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Flags

Long name (short name)	Argument types	Properties
Common flags
-constructionHistory(-ch)	boolean
Turn the construction history on or off.
-flipReversed(-fr)	boolean
If this flag is turned on, the reversed UV pieces are fliped.
-layout(-l)	int
How to move the UV pieces, after cuts are applied: 0 No move is applied. 1 Layout the pieces along the U axis. 2 Layout the pieces in a square shape.
-layoutMethod(-lm)	int
Which layout method to use: 0 Block Stacking. 1 Shape Stacking.
-name(-n)	string
Sets the name of the newly-created node. If it contains namespace path, the new node will be created under the specified namespace; if the namespace does not exist, it will be created.
-percentageSpace(-ps)	float
When layout is set to square, this value is a percentage of the texture area which is added around each UV piece. It can be used to ensure each UV piece uses different pixels in the texture. Maximum value is 5 percent.
-rotateForBestFit(-rbf)	int
0 No rotation is applied. 1 Only allow 90 degree rotations. 2 Allow free rotations.
-scale(-sc)	int
How to scale the pieces, after move and cuts: 0 No scale is applied. 1 Uniform scale to fit in unit square. 2 Non proportional scale to fit in unit square.
-separate(-se)	int
Which UV edges should be cut: 0 No cuts. 1 Cut only along folds. 2 Make all necessary cuts to avoid all intersections.
-worldSpace(-ws)	boolean
If true, performs the operation in world space coordinates as opposed to local space.
Advanced flags
-caching(-cch)	boolean
Modifies the node caching mode. See the node documentation for more information. Note: For advanced users only.
-nodeState(-nds)	int
Modifies the node state. See the node documentation for more information. Note: For advanced users only.
