Well, this should be incredibly easy to answer (somebody?). I am currently unwraping UVWs in 3ds max 8, however, I am unable to "flatten mapping" for some odd reason. I'm dealing with a cube, and all that I want is to see the six planes in the Edit UVWs dialog window. In the Mapping menu there is an option called Flatten Mapping, but it is disabled. Can anyone tell me why, or what I should be doing to enable it? Thanks! :)

1. Did you selected Unwrap UVW's faces from BOX?

2. Don't apply to collapse modefiers at modefiers stack. If it's smooth and you'll collapse it, Flatten mapping will disappear!

Ah yes. This did the trick, I did collapse the modifiers. It works great now. Thanks!
