Bernard is talking about
editing UV s of multi objects at the same time wich is not possible even in XSI
6, you can see all the projections but only edit one.

I was talking about XSI 6. I can open the TE on multiple
objects and see all
the uv sets or I can have one object with multiple UV sets and shift select
them in the UV menu to get any or all of them in the TE view.
