Workflow for Blender

Run Scripts From Folder is a Blender add-on that executes a chosen script from the folder paths set in Preferences under File Paths, Script Directories, letting you run scripts from the right window context.

SciBlend is a Blender extension for scientific data visualization, importing VTK formats, exporting volume data to OpenVDB, generating materials from mesh attributes, and building customizable legend overlays. Released under the GNU GPL v3.0 or later.

Sculpt Navigation brings ZBrush/3D-Coat style viewport navigation to Blender, letting you orbit and pan from empty canvas space while sculpting or painting directly on mesh. It supports a pen tablet workflow without needing the middle mouse button.

Select By Index is a Blender add-on by Eric-Banker that selects all vertices, edges, or faces within an index range. From Edit Mode, choose the selection mode and range, then replace or add to a prior selection.

Sequence Loader is a Blender add-on by Stefan-Jeske that loads meshio-supported mesh file sequences just-in-time. Data loads when the frame changes, importing vertices, lines, triangles and quads by default.

Shader View is a Blender add-on that previews node outputs directly in the Node Editor, without switching to Material Output. It shows real-time previews of shader nodes for both Cycles and Eevee.

Shape Keys ++ is a Blender add-on from Shugan for managing shape keys, covering duplicate, mirror, invert, blend with vertex groups, global sliders, and applying shapes to basis, all without switching modes.

ShapeKey Axis Control is a Blender add-on that maps shape keys to a 2D Axis HUD joystick. Drag a target point across the X and Y axes to blend multiple shape keys at once.

SilhouetteToole is a Blender add-on from Quinzy that adds a one-click viewport silhouette mode. It switches the 3D Viewport to a clean black-on-white silhouette using Solid and Flat shading.

Simple F-Curves is a Blender addon by Alex Quill for shaping animation F-curves straight from the Timeline editor. Click and drag icons to control curves, with live preview and a set of extra animation tools.

Snapline is a snapping and alignment add-on for Blender that speeds up object positioning. It provides real-time snapping and alignment tools for matching position, rotation, and orientation between objects with minimal effort.

Sound Waveform Display brings audio waveforms directly into Blender's animation editors, letting you sync actions to sound without setting up the sequencer separately. It pulls from scene sounds and offers several ways to choose which strips to show.

Splats is a Blender extension that renders multi-frame sequences from camera positions arranged on a sphere, built for 3D reconstruction and Gaussian Splatting workflows. It exports per-frame PLY point clouds and camera parameters in OpenCV format.

STEPper Reborn is a CAD importer add-on for Blender that brings .STEP files into the scene with their hierarchy, tessellated by OpenCascade. It is a fork of the STEPper add-on originally created by Ambi.

Surface Painter is a Blender addon for adding pre-colored basic materials to objects. Pick from 27 common surfaces and 75 palette colors, then paint with CTRL+LMB across faces, edge-bound areas, or whole objects.

Text editor for Development adds explorer and templating enhancements to Blender's built-in text editor for add-on development. It brings a VSCode-style folder view and can clone learning material and multi-file add-on templates to a local directory.

Theme Updater is a Blender add-on for theme maintainers that migrates custom themes from 4.5 LTS to 5.0. It reads a 4.5 LTS theme's XML file and fetches colors for Blender 5.0's generalized properties.

ToothPaste (Paste SVGs) is a Blender extension that pastes SVG content directly from your clipboard, without saving files or import dialogs. It bridges vector design tools and Blender, supporting Grease Pencil, Curves, Text, and image workflows.

Trimmer is a Blender add-on for mapping an existing trim-sheet onto a model. You divide a plane into faces that reference trim positions, add them to its panel, then apply trims to selected faces.
