Trim Sheet Operators

Panel

Mesh Selection Mode

The mode defines the behaviour what part of mesh will be transformed

Islands that has selected mesh elements are transformed in the mode

Islands are processed with separate pivots

All islands are processed with the same pivot

Only selected mesh elements are transformed in the mode

Move islands inside active trim. Islands outside active trim will be ignored if Lock in Trim option is set

Rotate islands inside active trim

Flip islands relative to the center of active trim

Fit islands into active trim

Align islands to active trim

Scale in active trim. Islands outside active trim will be ignored if Lock in Trim option is set

Hotspot Mapping is a UV mapping method that compares the parameters of Islands and Trims and makes automatic mapping based on the given settings.

Follow the link to find more information about Hotspot Mapping.

Select and activate trim by selected face

Select islands inside active trim

Hotspot mapping using island normal vector.

Properties

Mode – Defines which trims will be used for mapping.
- All Trims – Uses all available trims.
- Selected Trims – Uses only the selected trims.
Orient – Determines island rotation before mapping.
- As Is – No rotation applied.
- Orient to World – Aligns the island to the world axis.
- Orient to Axis – Auto-orients the island to the nearest axis.
Threshold – Defines how precisely the island’s normal must match the trim’s normal for mapping.
Keep Proportion – Prevents stretching or squashing by maintaining the original aspect ratio of the UV islands.
Allow Location Variation – If enabled, islands may be placed in different trims that have similar size and orientation parameters. If disabled, islands are strictly mapped to their assigned trims.
Allow Scaling – Automatically scales UV islands to fit the target trim while preserving proportions (unless ‘Keep Proportion’ is disabled).
Select Processed – After applying the mapping, this option highlights the UV islands that were successfully adjusted to trims.
Seed – Sets a seed value for the randomization algorithm, ensuring consistent placement variations of islands in similar trims.
Orient - Perform some Island rotation before Hotspotting

Retrieve the normal vector from the selected face and apply it to the active trim.

Properties

Average Normal Value – If enabled, calculates the average normal when multiple faces are selected.
If disabled, only the normal of the active face will be applied to the trim.
