### Interpolation

Bilinear

Bilinear takes longer to calculate than Nearest Neighbor, especially if you are scaling multiple textures. But it gives the best results.

Nearest Neighbor

This mode gives you fast results but the quality is relatively poor.

### Transform UVW

Enable this option if you want to rotate the UV mesh as well as the texture.

> **Tip:** You can select Transform UVW only if the textures in the channels to be rotated are all the same size.
