Why we like it

Stands out in the superhive library for consolidating crease, bevel weight, and bevel modifier controls into one pie menu, with custom values configurable in the preferences.

What is Edge Crease & Bevel Weight Pie Menu?

Edge Crease & Bevel Weight Pie Menu adds a pie menu to Blender for working with edge creases and bevel weights. From the menu you can trigger the default edge crease or bevel weight tool, set a crease or bevel weight value to 1 or 0, apply predefined values, and mark or unmark edges as sharp. It automatically uses vertex crease or edge crease depending on the current selection mode.

The add-on also handles bevel modifiers directly. You can add a bevel modifier with its limit method set to weight, control basic bevel modifier properties, work with multiple bevel modifiers, and rename a modifier from within the pie menu. It checks whether the object has a bevel modifier and shows a notice when one is missing. A side panel lists the attributes used as bevel weights and shows the value of the active element, and you can add a new attribute and assign it as a bevel weight. The pie menu stays open while you change the active bevel modifier.

Built by Wilphi Design and licensed under GPL, it supports Blender 3.0 through 5.0. A demo video is available.
