The idea in one minute

You've got a trim sheet. You mark it up once in the Set Creator, and that's a set.

From then on: select faces in 3ds Max or Blender, click a piece of that set, and the UVs are rewritten for you. Or press Run Hotspot and every face group is measured, matched and applied in one go.

Sets are what everything else is built on. Start with Making a Set.

The tab rail runs down the side, or along the top if you prefer.
