# UV Straighten

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **UV Straighten function** in **Cinema 4D**. It straightens the path of selected UV edges — the edge-based partner of UV Rectangularize — keeping texture lines from wobbling across a model.

This feature can be used with selected edges to straighten their path.\
Clicking the gear icon for this tool opens a settings dialog.\
To straighten a selection of UV polygons have a look at [UV Rectangularize](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/TOOLUVRECTANGULARIZE.html.md).
