pymel.core.modeling.subdLayoutUV

subdLayoutUV(*args, **kwargs)

Move UVs in the texture plane to avoid overlaps.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
caching (cch)		bool
constructionHistory (ch)		bool
flipReversed (fr)		bool
	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)		unicode
nodeState (nds)		int
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)		bool
	If true, performs the operation in world space coordinates as opposed to local space.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.subdLayoutUV

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Create a cube
mel.eval( "createSubdCubeProc" )

# Layout all UVs in the texture plane.
pm.subdLayoutUV( 'subdivCube1.smf[*][*]', l=2, fr=True, se=2, sc=1 )
