| when i unwrap my model, its a room, i get overlapping. in the 2d view where it shows the unwraped faces, when i click an unwraped section i can move it. If I was to move all the overlapped bits out of eachothers way, could I still export the uv map and use it to texture the model? |

| Sure.  That is the whole point of UV mapping, to tweak the texture coordinates to eliminate overlaps. |

| phew, thx jhocking. I looked through the docs and on the website but couldnt find any info on it so i assumed it couldnt be done. also i may not have looked as deeply as others would. |
