Moving
The Moving section provides essential tools for managing and repositioning your UV elements across UDIM tiles. This feature is designed to offer both precision and flexibility during the texturing workflow, ensuring that your UV layouts are organized exactly as you need them for high-quality production.
UDIM Slider The UDIM Slider offers an interactive, real-time method for shifting your UV islands between UDIM tiles. With just a simple slide, you can instantly adjust the position of your UVs across the UDIM grid. This dynamic tool is perfect for making quick adjustments and for visual experimentation—letting you see on the fly how your changes affect the overall layout.
UDIM Number The UDIM Number property allows you to manually assign or modify the exact UDIM tile number for selected UV islands. This is particularly useful when precise control is needed. Instead of relying solely on automated placements, you can input a specific UDIM tile number to ensure the UVs are positioned exactly where they need to be. It helps maintain consistency, especially in complex projects with multiple materials and textures.
Why It’s Useful
Streamlined UDIM Management: By combining the ease of an interactive slider with precise numerical control, the Moving section makes it effortless to manage UDIM assignments. Whether you want to quickly test different placements or require exact adjustments, these tools cover both scenarios.
Enhanced Flexibility: The UDIM Slider enables you to explore various UV configurations quickly, while the UDIM Number setting gives you the certainty that your final layout meets the strict requirements of your project. This dual approach caters to both fast iterative workflows and detailed, exact work.
Optimized Texturing Pipeline: Organized and correctly assigned UDIM tiles are essential for high-quality texture painting and baking. With the Moving tools, you ensure that your UVs are aligned perfectly, reducing potential issues in subsequent steps when exporting to tools like Substance Painter or during the rendering process.
The Moving section provides both an interactive UDIM Slider and precise UDIM Number controls, allowing you to efficiently manage the placement of UV islands across UDIM tiles. Whether for rapid adjustments or meticulous placement, these features help ensure that your models are perfectly organized and ready for high-quality texturing, ultimately saving time and enhancing production quality.
