Has anyone seen the Align Selected Mappings check box in the OIP ?
As in, the Align Selected Mappings check box is always greyed out.

In our workflow, there are dozens of times that we need to map a single Texture (Color/Image Shader) across several components. The ability to align a single Texture so the design renders as a unified image, (à la reality!), is very important. The Align Selected Mappings option in the OIP was once thought of as an option that could be a key to simplicity. Alas, I have NEVER see this option available till today. Oddly, while it suddenly was not greyed out, with multiple same Texture extrudes selected, it did NOT appear to actually do anything.

Stumbled into this Align Selected Mappings (…in the OIP) while preparing some instructions to advise an associate how to align selected mappings, mathematically, as I know of few ways to do it otherwise. (At 0:25 in the attached) It required that the items be selected first, then grouped, then exit group, then duplicated, then moved, then edit group, to actually find the Align Selected Mappings option available in the OIP
