This video will demonstrate how the UV Flatten tool works in Houdini, using a head bust geometry. We'll use the Cut Geometry for UV Layout option to make our seam cuts, create a group and assign those them into the UV Flatten node. We'll also look at the Visualizer for UV Distortion and see how we can edit the subsequent UV islands using Pins to Manipulate, Vertices to Pin, and Edges to Cut options.

    Great video, would be good to get it tagged also as visualizer, it is very hard to find extra info.
