Selecting
Much like the 3D Viewport, the UV Editor has selection mode buttons in the header, as well as a Select menu.
Sync Selection
If turned off (the default), the UV Editor only shows the faces that are selected in the 3D Viewport. Selecting an item in one editor does not automatically select it in the other. If one 3D vertex/edge corresponds to multiple UV vertices/edges, you can select each of those individually.
If turned on, the UV Editor always shows all faces. Selecting an item in one editor also selects it in the other. If one 3D vertex/edge corresponds to multiple UV vertices/edges, you can’t select those individually (you can only select all of them).
Selection Mode
- Knoten:
1 Select vertices.
- Edge:
2 Select edges.
- Face:
3 Select faces.
- Island:
4 Select contiguous groups of faces. Only available if Sync Selection is disabled.
If Sync Selection is enabled, you can hold Shift while clicking a selection mode to activate multiple ones at the same time, or Ctrl to expand/contract the selection.

Sticky Selection Mode
Options for automatically selecting additional UV vertices. Only available if Sync Selection is disabled.
- Disabled
Each UV vertex can be selected independently of the others.
- Shared Location
Automatically select UV vertices that correspond to the same mesh vertex and have the same UV coordinates. This is the default and gives the illusion that multiple faces in a UV map can share the same vertex; in reality, they have separate vertices that overlap.
- Shared Vertex
Automatically select UV vertices that correspond to the same mesh vertex, even if they have different UV coordinates. This is also the behavior when Sync Selection is enabled.
Shortest Path
Referenz
- Modus:
Edit Mode
- Menü:
- Tastenkürzel:
Ctrl-LMB
Selects all the UV elements along the shortest path between two elements: the two selected elements when activated using the menu, or the active one and the clicked one when activated using the shortcut.
- Face Stepping
For vertices: allows the path to step across faces, following their diagonal rather than their edges.
For edges: selects disconnected edges that are perpendicular to the path (edge ring), rather than connected edges along the path (edge loop).
For faces: allows the path to go through faces that only share a vertex, rather than an edge.
- Topology Distance
Calculates the distance by simply counting edges rather than measuring their lengths.
- Fill Region Shift-Ctrl-LMB
Selects all shortest paths (rather than just one).
- Dashed Line Options
Allows to only select elements at regular intervals, creating a „dashed line“ rather than a continuous one.
- Deselected
The number of deselected elements in the repetitive sequence.
- Selected
The number of selected elements in the repetitive sequence.
- Offset
The number of elements to offset the sequence by.

Select Edge Loop
Referenz
- Modus:
Edit Mode
- Tastenkürzel:
Alt-LMB, or Shift-Alt-LMB for extending the existing selection.
Holding Alt while clicking an edge selects that edge and then expands the selection as far as possible in the two directions parallel to it. (While this of course works for selecting edge „loops“ that go all the way around a mesh, it also works if there’s no loop.)
You can additionally hold Shift to extend the current selection rather than replacing it.
