Thanks for the replies. I have tried doing screen-grabs as slacer suggested. It does work, but it's tedious. The Quadraxas made sounded like a great one, and I find that I can get this to work sometimes, but not others. And bart's suggestion is exactly what I used to do, and it used to work in MED, but no more. (I think maybe 6.384 is the last version that would do it.) In general, I find the skin editor in MED to be rather unpredictable. For instance, sometimes it just zooms in to the maximum suddenly when I'm doing something unrelated to zooming. Also that strange "sometimes the fill tool works, sometimes it doesn't" problem. Anyway, I guess I should learn Lith-Unwrap or something. Anybody have a favorite skinning tool to suggest?
