Additional UV tools

One of the biggest drawbacks I've noticed when trying to visualize UV islands is the lack of options like

  1. Show flipped faces
  2. Show overlapping faces

and many more tools that a lot of industry standard programs have.

I currently have to utilize 3 different addons to try and correct this issue and they're not consistent.

I would really appreciate it and I think many others would as well If we were able to get some extra UV tools.

Many Thanks, Miroslav

I want the ability to unwrap along a particular axis like maya has, where you can unwrap along U or V depending on the flow of the geometry

You mean like a constant shaded display on affected faces, not a selection like you can do with TextTools? I can see how that would be better than having to click select flipped or select overlapped, fixing it then having to click select again to find the other problem areas.

I would like to see relax by face angles, with an option to select areas of texel density and select Islands option in Sync selection mode. I got it by changing the "L" key to a double click instead and changing the range to UV. It was an odd hoop to have to jump through when the option was already in the other UV mode, both should have the same options.
