Hi,

is there a way in SI to get access to either enumerations of UV Islands or at least the ability to get connected uv points?
I am trying to program a UV layout script and this must iterate over UV Islands. It is not an option to use polygon islands, since I often have one single mesh with many UV islands.

Help is very appreciated.

Thanks.

What script are you building ?

Hi FalconCrest,

I am trying to build a UV Layout Script.

What will it do, sorry I wasn’t specific :)

Hi,

I have a bunch of UV Islands that need to be transformed so that they lie in the 0-1 space of the UV space in a way that represents the size of their polygon counterpart.
The UV Islands are already there, so I need to grab each island and transform it (and all the samples in it). The problem is that there is no decent way to get hold of the island information of samples. I have the neighbor property on vertices but not on samples.

If possible I would build it as an ICE operator, but I assume this is a very difficult thing to do.

In the end it suffers from not having the ability to get a list (array, datastructure, ...) that holds information about sample (uv) neighbors (or islands).

That is the same thing, that I was inquiring about a little while ago.  Except I wanted to get the UV islands to stamp out each island for texture painting, have you thought of adding this feature ?
