This video takes another step with UV Mapping in Design 3D 7, using a simple box, then a more interesting box with filleted edges. We will create the UV map for a typical basic box label layout, and make it fit our box.
Note that I am able to do the burn UV multiple times and continue to make new UV maps that fit the box. This works here because I am not really altering the outer shape of my box: I am only refining it around the edges and with some additional internal detail. If I were truly changing the shape of the box, there would come a time when this would not work.
Try it yourself! >> Download my CX 7 box files here <<
Below is the map I used in this exercise, so you can try this yourself. Make your box 8″ tall, 4″ wide, and 2″ deep, or any other size that that follows those proportions (8:4:2, 4:2:1, 12:6:3, etc).
