Hi!

I've got rectangular-like geo that ends up curved in the UVs. Is there a tool to straighten the shape so it's a perfect rectangle?

UVFlatten has this functionality. https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/nodes/sop/uvflatten.html [www.sidefx.com]

It is commercial software though, RizomUV seems very good at dealing with UVs.

Ok, to end up with rectangles, I had to use the "Rectify Group" in the UVFlatten sop. If you use " * ", it does it for all.
