[The Cube]

Hi All,

I am new to maya, I need to know how one goes about veiwing the mapping co ordinates of an object, ie - the layout of the co ordinates. I undestand how to change the type of projection which is used on the model but want to know how to look at the mapping layed out flat...

Thanks in advance

window > UV texture editor. Also, if you want to see a checker map on the object, you need to aply a new shader on the object, and in the shader attributes, go to colour , click the little box next to it and add a checker map.

Okay, thanks for your help.

This will sound like a silly question, but also how do I scale the uvs, where is the tool for this inside the uv window ?

Basically, there are the same tools as in the persp/ortho windows. "W" to move, "E" to rotate and "R" to scale.
