U is the horizontal axis, and V is the vertical axis of the image. Now it becomes easier to generate good UV maps concerning any type of geometry just with the use of the tools comprised with this plugin.

The plugin contains the following exclusive features :-

• Planar, Cylindrical, and Spherical UV projections at any orientation
• Box mapping
• Tube mapping - ideal for objects produced with follow-me
• Quad face mapping
• Move, rotate, and scale UVs

• Triangulate geometry and eliminate distorted textures
• Save UVs and Load UVs - modify materials and maintain UVs
• Export and Import UVs by applying third party UV mapping software
