API function: algo.unwrapUV
Considering a set of UV islands (defined either by existing UV coordinates or by lines of interest over the mesh surface), this function generates UV coordinates by flattening each 3D surface patch corresponding to an island onto the Euclidean plane while minimizing a distortion criterion between both 3D and UV spaces.

Parameters
Occurrences
List of occurrences to process.
Method
Determines the type of solver used for unwrapping (using the enum algo.UnwrapUVMethod):
- : minimizes edge length distortions using ARAP solver.
Isometric - : minimizes face angle distortions using ABF++ solver.
Conformal
Channel
UV channel to run the unwrapping on. If lines of interest are used, the channel corresponds to the destination where the new UV coordinates are stored.
Create seams from LoI
If checked, UV islands are created by considering lines of interest as boundaries (in other words, as cutting lines over the mesh surface). Otherwise, islands defined by existing UV coordinates are used.
Lines of interests can be computed by algo.segmentMesh, for instance.
Iter max
Solver stopping criterion: maximum number of iterations allowed.
Tolerance
Solver stopping criterion: error threshold.
