Some details:
Baked texture list
- Selecting an items switches bake mode and UV image background
- Great for quickly switching to previous bake modes to make adjustments
- Once saved, assets can be openend in their default Apps
Fill tool
- Rotates the UV soleection to its minimal bounds
- Scales UV selection bounds to match UV 0-1 canvas area
- Great for maximising UV fill for quads or FX meshes like particles
New Gravity Checker Map
- More simplified
- higher contrast
Straighten tools
Unfolds and Pins selected edge loops into straight lines and relaxes the rest of the UV island. Similar to Headus UV layout with its edge constraints. It does not re-scale the edge distance but instead maintains it.

I use your tex tools always when baking, it makes things very easy. Thank you very much for developing an amazing addon for the community.

Great tool! Is it going to be ported to 2.8?
Also interested, will it be updated when 2.8 stable goes live ?
