Center On Interest Addon earns its place for a focused job: keeping the viewport perspective and zoom fixed while centring on a selection, which suits repetitive, precise edits on the same element. The developer commits to updating it for new Blender releases and offers modified builds for older versions on request.

It is also marked as Blender extension compatible, so you can expect it to fit Blender's extension system on the supported releases noted on the developer's page.

What is the default hotkey for Center On Interest Addon?

Center On Interest Addon uses Ctrl+Shift+F as its default hotkey for Center On Interest. Pressing it focuses the view on your current selection, whether that is an object, vertex, edge, or face, while leaving your viewport perspective and zoom setting undisturbed. This lets you run precise serial operations on the selected element without repositioning the view. Documentation is included with the add-on, and a demo video is available, so you can check the developer's page for full usage details before setting it up.

Is Center On Interest Addon free, and how is it licensed?

Center On Interest Addon is listed as free in this catalog, and it is distributed under the GPL license. For current licensing terms and any purchase details, visit the developer's page directly, since terms can change over time. The add-on is published by fablesalive, who is listed as a Blender Development Fund contributor. Documentation is included with the download, which can help you confirm exactly what is provided and how the add-on is set up before you commit to using it.

Does Center On Interest Addon change the viewport zoom or perspective?

Center On Interest Addon focuses on your selected objects, vertices, edges, or faces without disturbing your viewport perspective or zoom setting. That is the core behaviour: your framing stays fixed while the view centres on what you have selected. Keeping perspective and zoom constant is what makes it practical to perform precise serial operations on the same object, vertex, edge, or face in sequence. You can trigger this with the default Ctrl+Shift+F hotkey on the Blender versions listed on the developer's page.
