Fast Trim UV - Maya script

0.2 update :

• The padding function has been improved, operating on a per-pixel basis. Previously, it operated with a scaling factor between 0 and 0.9. Now, simply enter the desired padding value in pixels, and it will automatically adjust according to the texture size you've specified.

  Intro :
  
  This Python script is designed to enhance the trim sheet UV workflow in Maya, drawing inspiration from the techniques developed by Insomniac Games. The-Ultimate-Trim-Texturing-Techniques
  
• Auto-Align UV Shells: Automatically align UV shells based on their sizes and specified trim sizes.
• Texture Resolution & Padding Controls: Fine-tune the texture resolution and padding scale to meet your specific needs.
• Randomize & Match Trim Height Options: Enable randomization of UV shell positions and choose to match trim heights.(Randomization is a valuable feature when you have multiple trim sections of the same size. It will positions various shells within the corresponding section, distributing them randomly for a more dynamic layout.)
• Save & Load Configurations: Preserve your preferred settings in a config file and load them whenever needed.
• Manual Alignment: Easily align your selected UV shell to the center of a predefined trim location for precise control.
• Randomize U position button for more variation.

Includes a PDF for documentation on how to install and use the script.
