Magic UV

MagicUV add-on is so great, except that the objects must has scale = 1.
I noticed that if I didn’t do (top-menu>object>apply>scale), I will get wrong result.
How to use this add-on without applying the scale first?

Is it abandoned?
Found some bugs with Texture Lock, when trying to continue manipulate elements by parameters window
and after scaling to 0 got errors…

Sorry for late response.
Recently, I’m working on the other projects and could not update.
I tried to improve current add-on to solve your issue or other reported issues.
I think we could release v6.3 sooner or later which adds new features add fixes the exist bugs.

Texture Lock also has a issue which you introduce, so I’m trying to fix this issue now.

Thanks!

Can you explain what ‘Stride’ option does? I’m translating Blender documentation to Vietnamese and I needed to know exactly what it does in order to translate the meaning correctly.

The same UV islands will be moved after UV packing is finished.
Stride option is the move amount of each UV islands.
If there is three same UV islands, the location of UV islands will be:

  • UV Island 1: Origin
  • UV Island 2: Origin + Stride * 1
  • UV Island 3: Origin + Stride * 2

Hello, I was really excited to find this addon, but I have encountered an issue.
After enabling the addon, Word Scale UV option is not appearing in the menu under UV manipulation. I have checked that I am running the latest version of the addon.
