Flip or rotate UV shells

The Flip and Rotate commands let you easily change the orientation of UV shells within the UV Editor. Flipping a UV shell is useful if you need to correct a UV shell that is reversed or reverse wound (see Display UV winding order).

To flip or rotate UVs on a texture shell

1. Select the faces you want to flip the texture on.
2. Do one of the following:
   • On the main menu, select UV > Flip or UV > Rotate.
   • In the UV Editor, select Polygons > Flip or Polygons > Rotate.
3. Choose the direction to flip, and whether to flip within the bounding box of the selection (local) or across the texture space axes (global).
4. Click Apply.
