If you take a look at my proposal, it’s about adding just one letter “U” and one letter “V” near the two corresponding surface edges of the surface. Note that this is not a substitute to the existing coloured line markings. It’s a request to add two additional letter markers to the edges of the currently edited surface(s). Check my image below.
This particular image was also posted in another topic much earlier, but I can’t find it now. It was part of another request to combine “Rebuild surface” and “Rebuild surface UV”, where the TAB key would switch the directions between U, V or UV (both), hence the additional text at the bottom of the image.
The same approach with “U” and “V” letters next to the surface edges was used in the recent Cyberstrack plug-in and it works perfectly fine, giving the user an immediate information about either direction.
