I have a single error-free mesh.
Now I want to apply a mapping to it.
First I unwrap the object, Method=Conformal.
Then I go to the UV Editor.
I get a mesh which is very dense in the middle:
The mapping is not nearly even.
To get the mesh more evenly, I tried some of the UDTs like _CageEdit, _Stretch etc…
Doesn’t really work well.
Any ideas?
Or a different approach?

hi @Charles if a seam is allowed, you will get better symmetry and less deformation:
or only one seam:
Thank you @Gijs
I tried myself by splitting the mesh and join it.
So I should have 2 seams.
Yes, I have and UnWrap goes well.
Then I tried with 1 seam only.
Also works well.
To select 1 seam only is cumbersome.
The chain option while selecting the seam is useless.
In the end I selected both seams by window, and then Ctrl-windowed the unwanted one.
I’m sure you know a smarter method?
that was my method too
Not really, but what works partly is QuadrangulateMesh, then you only have to double click a couple of edges.
