Selecting
Selection tools are available in the Select Menu in the header, and the shortcuts listed below.
Sync Selection
Turning on the Sync Selection button causes selection of components in the 3D Viewport to sync with their corresponding elements in the UV editor. If off only the selected faces are displayed in the UV editor. These two modes have very different results when transforming components in the UV editor.
