Blender Secrets - Live Unwrap

When UV unwrapping, you're adding Edge Marks without seeing the result until you unwrap, in a way working blindly. Live Unwrap and Sync allow you to unwrap things while getting a live preview of the UV unwrapping in the 3D viewport. This allows for faster and better UV unwrapping.

This is probably the best blender unwrapping tutorial I've ever seen. I love this one-minute format.

After way too many attempts at learning UV unwrapping and watching 30+ minute tutorials YOU have finally made it click, and in under a minute! THANK YOU. You deserve all the ad Revenue coming your way. This channel is a gold mine.

Why on earth isn't this more accessible in blender. I've looked for something like this without finding it. I swear the amount of times I find incredibly useful things like this hidden away in blender... It's too often. Similar experience when I discovered how you can make a brush draw emissive light strips anywhere. I later saw this in a Curtis holt video to great effect. What else is there to discover!? :)

I'm waiting for the day when someone creates an algorithm that will automatically unwrap at least simple meshes.

Can you do a hair tutorial for games or a facial animation tutorial using motion track?

[curtisnewton]

ok but what does live unwrap ? you explain everything but that

[curtisnewton]

shortest path is quiet useless ALT+click allows to select edges faster

Anyone else experiencing the UV Editor lagging extremely hard when using an image? It has been happening out of nowhere and I can't find a similar case except for one back in 2013
