!faq uv-mapping
- Definition
A UV-map or just "UV" is the information in a model, which parts of a texture are shown on which parts of a model. UVs can overlap and hence cause several parts to use the same area on the texture.
- Editing a UV Map
You can edit a UV-map trough the UV window in the top left.
Make sure to have a cube selected which you want to UV map and freely resize/move the selection box in the UV window.
You cannot resize the UV selection if you're using BoxUV

**- What do the value fields below the UV window mean? **
Per-face uv: The first two values are the x/y position (with 0/0 being in the top left
corner) of the uv map, and the last two values its width and height.
_Box uv: The 2 values are the x/y position of the uv map. The size of the uv-map depends on the size of the respective cube.
- I don't wanna bother with any of that, just let me draw on the model!:
Select all elements (Ctrl+A) and, create a new texture and make sure to selec "Template" as type.
This will create a new texture that will keep already existing texture information, but assigns each element a unique section in the texture.
South North etc does not appear to me
because you only have box-uv in the Modded Entity format
but you can still move around UVs and generate textures, that's independant of the UV type
you are in paint mode
UVs are edited in Edit mode
