UV Map at a glance

UV Map

UV mapping became foundational once 3D graphics pipelines standardized on the idea of flattening mesh surfaces into 2D texture space for painting, baking, and material assignment.

BMP at a glance

BMP

Bitmap and device-independent bitmap structures became part of the Windows graphics story early in the platform's life, which is why BMP still appears in older desktop workflows and low-friction image interchange tasks.
