Stands out in the superhive library for bringing attribute readouts into the 3D view, so index, ID, and position values sit alongside the geometry itself rather than in a separate spreadsheet.
Data Viewer - Attribute Visualizer For Blender Geometry Node is a node group that shows geometry attributes in the 3D view, letting you read values without switching to the spreadsheet editor. It can be useful for debugging and troubleshooting, as well as for understanding the structure and relationships of 3D models. You can preview the ID or index of a vertex, edge, or face directly in the view, and view other attributes such as position, rotation, and radius depending on your input.
The tool offers custom parameters including field type, number color and size, flat or vertical orientation, decimal places, alignment, and axial arrows. A gradient color option marks value size, with blue for the minimum and red for the maximum. You can display axes instead of numbers, where r, g, b correspond to x, y, z and darker colors indicate negative values. A speed-up option helps preview large amounts of data more smoothly, and a domain value (range -2 to 5) sets which domain to view.
Data Viewer comes in Lite, Standard, and Professional versions, with a comparison table on the developer's page. It requires Blender 4.0 or later.
Data Viewer - Attribute Visualizer For Blender Geometry Node is best for debugging and troubleshooting geometry node setups, and understanding the structure and relationships of 3D models.
Data Viewer - Attribute Visualizer For Blender Geometry Node is completely free to download and use.
Data Viewer requires Blender version 4.0 or later, so make sure your install meets that minimum before adding it. It works as a node group inside the geometry node editor, where it shows geometry attributes directly in the 3D view. Once your Blender version is set, you can add it from the Add menu or drag it in from the Asset Browser. If you are on an older release, you would need to update Blender first for the node group to function as intended.
Data Viewer is a node group, so you install it by placing it in your asset path. After downloading from Blender Market or Gumroad, extract it to the location where you keep your other assets. Then open Edit - Preferences - File Paths, add that folder to your Asset Libraries, and save the setting, which happens automatically by default. From there the node group becomes available in your Asset Browser, ready to drag into the geometry node editor whenever you need it.
Data Viewer can be added in two ways once installed. In the geometry node editor, press Shift + A to open the Add menu and insert the Data Viewer node, or drag the Data Viewer straight from the Asset Browser into the Geometry Node Editor. To preview something like the index of a grid, you connect the nodes accordingly, and to check vertex position instead you replace the ID node with the position. The domain value then sets which domain you are viewing.
Data Viewer comes in three versions: Lite, Standard, and Professional. The Lite version supports only a single array, while Standard adds support for 3D arrays such as position and rotation. The Professional version adds some automatic processing, previews with axial arrows, and a folding panel, along with options like gradient color and domain control. A full comparison table covering each feature across the three versions is available on the developer's page to help you decide which one fits your needs.
Data Viewer is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and pricing can change, so for the current terms it is best to check the developer's page on Blender Market or Gumroad, where the latest version is distributed. The developer, cgpiece, also links out to documentation and a YouTube channel for additional Blender add-ons and tutorials. Reviewing those pages will give you the most up to date information on how each version of Data Viewer is offered.
