Change object dimensions and maintain existing UV unwrap style
Hi,
I have downloaded a model of plain box packaging. I would like to change the dimensions of the box (length, width, height) and create a UV unwrap. The downloaded model already has a good UV. When I edit the model and generate a new UV it isn’t as clean as the existing UV. How to I change the model dimensions and keep the same good UV?
Thanks

Hi Paul,
The UVs with the box model basically are not clean enough, as it has some slight deviations that appear when increasing the dimensions, as shown in the attached screenshots.
I hope this helps you

You can avoid the distortions that occur in the edges of the box due to the UV effect by using the “Rectangle Selection” tool and just selecting the edges of the box to increase the length, width and height as in the screenshots below. I did that and the result looks good.

Hello Paul,
If you scale your object proportionally (equal scale on all axis), then your UW will remain the same. On the other hand, if you want to scale it unproportionally, you will have to fix your UW.
