Synopsis

texMoveUVShellContext [-exists] [-image1 string] [-image2 string] [-image3 string] [-iterations int] [-mask boolean] [-position] [-shellBorder float] [object]

texMoveUVShellContext is undoable, queryable, and editable.

This command can be used to create, edit, or query a texture editor move manip context. Note that the above flags control the global behaviour of all texture editor move manip contexts. Changing one context independently is not allowed. Changing a context's behaviour using the above flags, will change all existing texture editor move manip contexts.

Return value

string(the name of the new context)

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
