Why we like it

Easy Cursor Snapper earns its spot in the Superhive library as a focused, single-purpose add-on: rather than a broad toolset, it handles two cursor-snapping jobs and keeps them one click away in the Tool Shelf. For anyone who repeats 3D Cursor alignment often, that narrow focus, plus its free and open-source GPL v3.0 licensing, is the draw.

What is Easy Cursor Snapper?

Easy Cursor Snapper is a lightweight, free, open-source add-on for Blender that simplifies object alignment. Built by Dani K Daniel, it centers on two single-click actions for working with the 3D Cursor, giving you a quick way to align objects without manual adjustment.

One click moves the 3D Cursor to the location of your selected objects, and another snaps selected objects directly to the current 3D Cursor position. The controls live in a simple, intuitive panel integrated into Blender's Tool Shelf, and the add-on is suited to architectural modeling, character rigging, and scene organization.

Easy Cursor Snapper works with Blender 3.0 and above and is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0, so the source code is open for anyone who wants to inspect or adapt it. Documentation is also included.

Frequently asked questions

Does Easy Cursor Snapper work with Blender 4.4?

Easy Cursor Snapper supports Blender 3.0 and above, and its listing shows compatibility with versions 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4. So Blender 4.4 users are covered, along with a wide range of earlier releases. If you run a version older than 3.0, the add-on is not listed as compatible. For the most current compatibility details, check the developer's page before installing, since supported versions can change as both Blender and the add-on are updated over time.

Is Easy Cursor Snapper free to use?

Easy Cursor Snapper is listed here as free, and it's described as a free, open-source add-on released under the GNU General Public License v3.0. That license lets you use, study, and modify the code within the terms of the GPL. Because licensing can change, it's worth confirming the current terms on the developer's page before you download. The open-source nature also means the source is available if you want to inspect or adapt how the cursor snapping works.

What license is Easy Cursor Snapper released under?

Easy Cursor Snapper is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0, a free and open-source license. This means the add-on's source code is available and can be used, modified, and shared in line with the GPL's terms. For anyone who wants to see how the cursor and selection snapping is implemented, or adapt it for their own needs, the GPL v3.0 permits that within its conditions. Check the developer's page for the full license text and any additional usage details tied to the download.

Where does Easy Cursor Snapper show up in Blender's interface?

Easy Cursor Snapper adds a simple, intuitive panel integrated into Blender's Tool Shelf. From there you can move the 3D Cursor to your selected objects or snap selected objects to the current 3D Cursor position, each with a single click. Keeping the controls in the Tool Shelf means the snapping actions sit alongside Blender's other tools. The add-on also includes documentation you can refer to.
