- Merge To

- Target
- (Default) The target vertex becomes the new vertex and the source vertex is deleted.
- Center
- A new vertex or edge is created equidistant between the source and target components. The source and target components are then removed.
- Preserve UVs

-
When active, UVs adjust to maintain the 3D texture placement. This setting is the default.
Showing Target Weld on a primitive with and without the preserve UVs option activated.
- Disable this option when you want the 3D texture to distort when the vertex or edge is adjusted.
