5. UV Map
UV mapping tools in LWCAD are used for fast UV mapping which is specifically optimized for architecture.
All UV tools use a shared UV map size that can be stored in library.
Rectangle UV
Rectangle UV
The UV Map projection tool using the Rectangle Tool.
The Rectangle tool defines the location and rotation of the UV mapping.
The size of the UV map may or may not be linked to the size of the tool.
Mapping works in three different modes:
- Polygon - Only one polygon is mapped (works only in Auto UCS mode)
- Plane - Only the polygons lying on the UCS plane are mapped (works only in Auto UCS mode)
- Proj - Only polygons that are aligned below the angle threshold.
Quad UV TR
Quad UV TR
New UV mapping tool for objects based on quad polygons and NURBS surfaces.
Quad UV Legacy
Quad UV Legacy
Legacy UV mapping tool for objects based on three and four point polygons.
The tool can recognize the original square polygons with the holes.
Ideal tool for mapping building walls!
