What it does

Skadira is a Blender add-on for one narrow job: taking the UV layout of a single quad strip and straightening it.

In the validation capture below, it has its own sidebar tab. The Straighten UV Strip panel offers Validate Selection and Straighten Strip, with options for spacing, strip axis, UV size, selection and pinned UVs.
