Once overlaps are detected, the affected primitives can be assigned to an output group. The node can repair the overlaps by repacking the UVs of the affected primitives into the space between other islands. -:video: - #src:/movies/cablegenerator.mp4 - - +This node currently does not work with UDIM. But UDIM will be supported soon. @parameters UV Attribute: #id: uvattrib + The UV attribute to operate on.

Higher values yield more accurate results at the cost of longer cook times. There is no need to set this higher than your project's texture resolution. Create Group from Detected Overlaps: #id: creategroup + Assigns primitives with overlapping UVs to an output primitive group. Turning this on also helps you visualize the overlaps in 3D and in the UV view. The group marks the primitives with overlaps in the original geometry. Even if you turn on *Repair Overlaps*, the repaired primitives are not removed from the group so you know which primitives have been repaired. Group Name: #id: groupname + The name of the output primitive group with overlapping UVs. Repair Overlaps: #id: repairoverlaps - - == Folder Name == - - Guide: - #id: guide + Automatically repairs the UV overlaps. Overlapping sections of the islands are cut away along existing edges and repacked into the space between other islands. +

If an overlapping section still contains self-overlaps after it is cut away, the section is disintegrated into individual polygons before repacking.

The UV scales of the cut-away sections remain fixed.

To be clear, the red parts no longer exist in the output UVs. The repacked islands that do exist in the output are displayed in white. \ No newline at end of file
