When I unwrap the object I am working on, the UV are way out of proportion. You can see in the image attached that the bottom piece is relatively small compared to the rest yet it takes up a majority of the UV space while the rest of the object is way too small. I have been looking through other questions asked on Stack Exchange.

So far, scaling the object has not worked. Turning on correct aspect ratio has not worked, projecting from view is a no go, nothing is working. Smart UV unwrap doesn't work. I have tried using add-ons but I am not getting any progress with those either.enter image description here

Is there a way to get this thing to scale properly?

    Have you tried selecting all UVs and using the "average islands scale" tool? Unwrapping only affects the selected faces, so they won't be able to control other UVs – JtheNinja Nov 23 '17 at 06:56
  • I tried it just now, does not work. Maybe I am using it wrong? How do i use Average Islands? – M.A.Babcock Nov 23 '17 at 07:03
  • maybe you wish to use that tool for what it has not been thought for, it seems you wish to unfold your model... not to map a texture on it – m.ardito Nov 23 '17 at 08:03
  • Do you have answers or comments? – M.A.Babcock Nov 23 '17 at 08:04
  • It is unwrapped going to mirror the sides. Want to check for distortion. – M.A.Babcock Nov 23 '17 at 08:05
  • Are you sure that you have not pinned them? – Allosteric Nov 23 '17 at 09:15
  • Did you apply scale for the model? (Object mode > Ctrl+A) See https://blender.stackexchange.com/a/7967/1245 for example. If something doesn't work like expected add some details about what exactly didn't work and what did you try. – Mr Zak Nov 23 '17 at 12:20
  • I followed the link you posted. When I got clear the Scale of the model (Object -> Clear -> Scale) the model becomes deformed as i I had manually set everything back to (1,1,1), Is there a way to reset the Scale so the model ratio can be set at (1,1,1) without this happening? – M.A.Babcock Nov 25 '17 at 07:46
  • Got it! I think. Found the apply tool in the same info site as the clear Tool. Much appreciated I have been having issues with this for days. Thank you again. – M.A.Babcock Nov 25 '17 at 07:55
