Why we like it

Stands out in the Superhive library for exposing an armature's custom properties to one procedural interface, so keyframes and drivers can be set without switching selection or mode.

What is Armature Properties Tool Set (Add-On)?

The Armature Properties Tool Set is an add-on for Blender that takes the custom properties of a selected armature and promotes them to a procedural user interface. From that interface you can filter custom properties and work with them directly, without leaving your current selection or switching modes.

Beyond exposing the properties, the add-on supports creating keyframes and drivers on the armature. It includes a pose bone selection function, a search filter (currently in beta), and a print function for armature properties. The tool set was developed using Blender 3.6.4 and Visual Studio Code, and has also been used with Blender 4.0.

When you get the add-on, it arrives as the most recent iteration in a compressed, zipped folder. Documentation is included. The developer, Marc Woodall of Woody's Fx, invites contact by email for questions or requests for additional features.
