Viewing an Unwrapped Object?

#1

What is the best way to view (or create the view) of an unwraped object. Essentially I want to use this to screen capture so I can make a correctly sized image in PhotoShop. Do I need a plug-in or can I do this within LW (I have ver. 9.3)?

I don’t necessarily need UVs, but just for the view I tried creating a new UV texture and then changing one of the views to UV Texture. But that view did not seam to completely unwrap the polys:

Something like that?

#3

YES exactly! What am I doing wrong?

Oohh, I see now. When you create the texture it depends upon how you project the texture (planar, cylindrical, etc.) and it displays in the UV Texture window differently.

So I think I’ve got it now.

Yeah its! U create UV Texture Map and use Cylindrical! Thats done! :slight_smile: Or u can use Texture Guide! See cool videos from Proton: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=5&t=568307
