Great for quickly switching to previous bake modes to make adjustments

Once saved, assets can be openend in their default Apps

Fill tool

Rotates the UV soleection to its minimal bounds

Scales UV selection bounds to match UV 0-1 canvas area

Great for maximising UV fill for quads or FX meshes like particles

New Gravity Checker Map

higher contrast
