Ive resently changed to max 6 from 5 and i've been continuing as always but ive discovered this damn annoying bug or hax or something, but then again i could be doing something :shrug:

Im using the UVW Unwrap modifier, ive selected a 12 sided (i think) cylinder with no top or bottom and used the unfold tool. Should work damn perfect right wrong.

Here it is unwrapped it appeared to work perfect

Now i select all the faces and move it. Heres the error it leaves a vertex behind.

Ok simple i'll just use vertex select mode and select and move the one left behind, wrong. As you can see that vertex has now gone completly.

Theres nothing wrong with the mesh itself ive checked it over and over. Whats going on ?

Is there a Work Around ?

I collapsed the UVW Modifier and created a new one and carryed on that worked once but i cant keep doing this every 3rd unwrap thats just rediculous.

wen u do the unwrap, untick the "normalize clusters" option when u do the unfold, tho it will be huge, youll have ot scale it down, its very anoying.. like i said :|
