Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer earns its place for pairing four viewer node groups with an addon that spawns them in a few clicks, and for letting the value text double as a render element rather than a debug-only overlay.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer is a workflow addon and node set for Blender that visualizes geometry node attribute values by generating text numbers at the positions of your attributes. It lets you read the concrete values of fields on their domain positions directly in the 3D view, and the generated text can be used in renders as well as for debugging.
The tool ships as four node groups with similar inputs: plug in the geometry and the desired attribute, and it outputs the original geometry plus text representing the values. You can control the text scale, color, and offset, and set more decimal places or a different number system. Version 2.0 added domain support for edges, faces, face corners and splines, label alignment to a selected object, and a selection input for choosing where labels appear.
The addon version spawns viewer nodes in a few clicks. Automatic viewing inside node groups is not supported, and viewers can generate many instances, so conservative usage is recommended.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer is best for blender artists who want to inspect geometry node attribute values directly in the 3D viewport and reuse the generated numbers in renders.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer is completely free to download and use.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer supports viewing fields stored across different domains, including edges, faces, face corners and splines, which arrived with version 2.0. You plug the geometry and the attribute you want into one of the viewer node groups, and it outputs the original geometry along with text showing the values at their domain positions. The same release added label alignment to a selected object and a selection input that controls where the viewer labels are generated, so you can direct the readout to specific parts of the geometry.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer is listed as free in this catalog, and the developer also makes it available on Gumroad and GitHub. Because licensing and distribution can change, check Griperis's developer page for the current terms before you download. The node groups and the addon version are both part of the package, so installing the addon lets Blender spawn the viewer nodes for you within a few clicks rather than adding them manually each time.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer provides keyboard shortcuts once you install the addon version. CTRL+SHIFT+Middle Mouse on a node with attributes cycles through them and views them, or connects the geometry to the active viewer. CTRL+SHIFT+Right Click on a node connected to a viewer removes the connected viewers from that node. CTRL+SHIFT+W opens the addon menu, where you can add viewers or remove all of them at once. You can also work with the four node groups directly by plugging geometry and an attribute into your node tree.
Geometry Nodes Attribute Viewer does not support automatic viewing of attributes inside node groups; the viewer is always spawned in the root node tree. It is also worth noting that the viewer node groups can generate a lot of instances, so the developer recommends conservative usage. Aside from debugging, the generated text is usable in your renders, and you can adjust its scale, color, and offset, along with the number of decimal places or a different number system to control how the values are displayed.
