What is Console Top Most?

Console Top Most is a Blender add-on from developer Sergey Tyapkin aimed at one specific annoyance: switching back to the System Console window. Once enabled, it makes the System Console the topmost window so it stays in view.

The add-on also handles window layout. It can save and restore the size and position of the Main and/or Preference windows when you switch scenes. Both functions live in the Window menu: Toggle System Console Top Most for the console, and Save & Restore Dimensions for the window sizing.

Console Top Most runs on Windows only and works with Blender 2.92 and up, through the 4.x releases including 4.3. It is distributed under the GPL license and carries a 5-star rating from a small set of reviews on superhive, with more than 100 sales to date.

Who is Console Top Most best for?

Frequently asked questions

Does Console Top Most work on macOS or Linux?

Console Top Most runs on Windows only, so macOS and Linux are not supported. The add-on makes the System Console the topmost window, and the listing names Windows as the only supported operating system. If you work on Windows, it covers Blender 2.92 through the 4.x releases, including 4.3. For anything outside Windows you would need a different tool, and the developer's page is the place to confirm current platform support before you install.

Which Blender versions does Console Top Most support?

Console Top Most supports Blender 2.92 and later, and the listing covers a broad range: 2.92, 2.93, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3. That span means it fits both older projects and current builds. Keep in mind it is Windows only regardless of the Blender version you run. For the most up-to-date compatibility details, check the developer's page before installing.

How do I turn on the topmost console in Console Top Most?

Console Top Most adds its controls to Blender's Window menu. To make the System Console stay on top, choose Window > Toggle System Console Top Most. To save and restore the size and position of the Main and/or Preference windows when switching scenes, use Window > Save & Restore Dimensions. Both options are accessed from the same menu. Remember the add-on runs on Windows only, so these features apply when you are working on that platform.

Is Console Top Most free?

Console Top Most is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, so the developer's page is the best place to confirm current pricing and availability before you download. The add-on is distributed under the GPL license. It has gathered a 5-star rating from a small number of reviews on superhive and passed more than 100 sales, which gives some sense of its track record.
