Hi,
Is it possible to mirror uv along the X tile axis?

I want to use this to layout my uvs ready for Mari.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean, but if you have the Pro version and the Symmetry edit mode is turned on, then when you pack, the shells and their mirror images end up on opposite sides of each tile.

Also, when in Symmetry edit mode, the 'S' key makes a mirror image copy of the shell under the mouse pointer. In the current release, the mirrored shells end up right next to each other, but I've just changed it here so that the mirrored shells end up on opposite side of the tile. This change will be in the next release.

That last feature was requested by another Mari user, so I'm thinking that the things they've requested are probably what you are after too.

That's it.

I meant mirroring a shell by taking the middle of the tile as the axis.
So I have to wait for the next release.

Right now I'm doing it manually by using snap and stack. But it's not really fast to do.

"So I have to wait for the next release. "

If you happen to be running the Linux version of UVLayout, you can get a beta release from the uvlayout.com Support Extras page that has that change to the "S" key. If not, are you using Win or Mac?

There's a new Win installer on the uvlayout.com Support Extras page. Its an upload to fix a problem with the Update tool, but also includes the changes to the 'S' key mirroring.
