When I select all vertices in the UV Editor, they merge.
I've been following Joey's tutorial and I have a problem with the process of adding materials to an object in the UV Editor. I know the tutorial is a bit outdated, but I come to you to check if there is any way I'm not aware of to solve it. In the tutorial, after adding the nodes and applying Smart UV Project, Joey selects all vertices and uses Scale + Zero to collapse them.
In Blender 5.1, when I select all vertices and press Scale + Zero, the vertices collapse but they also merge. Is there any way to collapse the vertices with Scale without them merging?
I know I can collapse face by face or manually select the vertex groups I need and collapse them, but is there any solution I'm missing to do the same thing as in the tutorial but in Blender 5.1?
I'm attaching a link to the tutorial video and a video of my blender window: https://youtu.be/DAAwy_l4jw4?t=1288
