Why we like it

Cheat Sheet earns its spot in the superhive library by pairing quick-access prompts with a work-break timer inside Blender.

What is Cheat Sheet?

Cheat Sheet is a Blender add-on from studioromanrec that keeps prompts on hand for both beginners and advanced users. Instead of searching through videos or textbooks when something slips your mind, you can keep reference prompts inside Blender as you work. If a prompt runs long, hovering your cursor over the text lets you read all of it.

This third version adds the ability to record your own prompts within the add-on. It also includes a timer function: set it to a chosen length, for example 30 minutes, and it will notify you visually and audibly when it's time to take a break. Before installing this version, uninstall the older one.

Cheat Sheet is compatible with Blender 4.3 down to 3.2 and is released under the GPL license. It is a Blender Extension-compatible add-on and is also featured in the studioromanrec Blender Add-Ons Bundle. A demo video is available, and documentation is included.

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does Cheat Sheet support?

Cheat Sheet supports a wide range of Blender releases, listed as 4.3, 4.2, 4.1, 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.2. It is also marked as Blender Extension compatible and is published as an add-on. This spread covers both current builds and several older ones, so you can run it across projects sitting on different Blender versions. Check the developer's page to confirm the details for your specific setup before installing.

How do I update Cheat Sheet to the third version?

Cheat Sheet asks that you uninstall the old version before installing the new one. This applies when moving up to the third release, which adds custom prompt recording and the timer function. The developer states this directly in the product notes, so it's worth doing before you set up the newer package. For the exact installation steps in your Blender build, refer to the developer's page, since the method described there will match the current release.

Is Cheat Sheet free?

Cheat Sheet is listed as free here in our catalog. Licensing and pricing can change over time, so for the current terms it's best to check the developer's page directly. The add-on is released under the GPL license and is also included in the studioromanrec Blender Add-Ons Bundle alongside other add-ons from the same creator. That bundle may be worth a look if you want more of the developer's tools together in one place.

How does the timer in Cheat Sheet work?

Cheat Sheet includes a timer you can set to a chosen length, for example 30 minutes. When the time is up, it notifies you both visually and audibly that it's time to take a break, which helps when it's easy to lose track of time while working. The timer arrived with the third version of the add-on, alongside the option to record your own prompts. You set the duration yourself, so you can match it to how long you want to work before stepping away.
