Why we like it

Earns its place in the Superhive library for turning per-object mesh data into a portable CSV that opens in Excel, LibreOffice or Google Sheets.

What is Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon is a Blender addon accessible from the Export menu that outputs a comprehensive list of mesh object properties to a CSV file. Once exported, the CSV can be imported into spreadsheet software such as Excel, LibreOffice or Google Sheets for further analysis, aiming to make managing large scenes easier.

The addon covers a wide range of properties per object: object name, vertex count, face count, edge count, volume, bounding box volume, detail density based on the ratio of face count to surface area, and manifold status. It also reports intersecting faces, assigned materials, UV map names, vertex groups, location, rotation in degrees, scale factors along X, Y and Z, dimensions, and parent object names.

Version 1.1 added options to export texture resolution and to flag missing textures. The stated use cases include model optimization, asset management, data analysis, collaboration and documentation, and quality assurance for topology issues before finalizing or exporting models.

Who is Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon best for?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon is best for blender users managing large scenes who want to analyze, optimize or document mesh objects in spreadsheet software.

How much does Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon cost?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

What mesh properties can Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon export to CSV?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon exports a comprehensive list of per-object properties, including object name, vertex count, face count and edge count. It also covers volume, bounding box volume, detail density, manifold status, intersecting faces, assigned materials, UV map names and vertex groups. Transform data is included too: location, rotation in degrees, scale factors along X, Y and Z, and dimensions. Since version 1.1 it can also report texture resolution and flag missing textures. All of this is written to a single CSV file for further analysis.

How do I use the CSV exported by Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon writes its output to a CSV file that can be imported into any spreadsheet software such as Excel, LibreOffice or Google Sheets for further analysis. The developer lists use cases including model optimization, asset management, data analysis, collaboration and documentation, and quality assurance. For example, you can use the data to identify intersecting faces or non-manifold geometry before finalizing or exporting your models, or share the exported data with team members and clients.

Where do I access Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon in Blender?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon is accessible from the Export menu in Blender. From there it exports a comprehensive list of mesh object properties from your 3D models to a CSV file. The intent is to streamline your workflow and make managing large scenes easier by providing insight into your mesh objects for analysis, optimization and data processing. For installation specifics and current details, check the developer's page.

Is Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon free?

Bulk Mesh Analysis Addon is listed as free in this catalog. For current licensing terms and any conditions, refer to the developer's page. The addon is published by Impression Sunrise for Blender and is available through the Superhive library, where it exports mesh object properties to a CSV file that you can open in spreadsheet software such as Excel, LibreOffice or Google Sheets.
