Earns its place in the blender_extensions library by bringing the familiar list-based interface Blender uses for Materials and UV Maps to the modifier stack, complete with hotkeys and preference toggles.
Modifier Stack Manager brings a UI List to Blender's modifier stack, mirroring the list-based interface Blender already uses for Materials, UV Maps and Vertex Groups. Developed by salaivv, it sits in the Modifiers tab of the Properties window and lets you handle the whole stack from one list.
From the list you can add, remove, duplicate, rearrange and rename modifiers, toggle render, viewport and edit mode visibility, apply or apply all modifiers, and remove all of them. You can expand the selected modifier while collapsing the rest, or collapse everything. Hotkeys cover applying all (Ctrl + Shift + A), removing all (Ctrl + Shift + X), and moving modifiers up or down (Ctrl + Shift + Up/Down), and they work while hovering over the Modifiers tab.
Version 1.4.0 makes the active modifier sync both ways between the list and the stack, adds an optional Show in Edit Mode toggle plus configurable Show in Viewport and Show in Render toggles in the add-on preferences, and makes the move up/down hotkeys repeatable when held. It is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer.
Modifier Stack Manager is best for blender users who prefer managing the modifier stack from a UI List, with hotkeys and list actions in the Modifiers tab.
Modifier Stack Manager is completely free to download and use.
Modifier Stack Manager is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer, so it runs on the current LTS release and later versions. It adds a UI List to the modifier stack in the Properties window, similar to the lists Blender already uses for Materials, UV Maps and Vertex Groups. Blender 4.2 LTS is the stated minimum, so if you are on an earlier release, check the developer's GitHub page for details before installing.
Modifier Stack Manager can be added by dragging and dropping it into Blender, or by downloading the extension and using Install from Disk. Once installed, its UI List appears alongside the modifier stack, and its hotkeys become active when you hover over the Modifiers tab in the Properties window. For version history and reviews, the extension is also available through the Blender Extensions Platform, and the source lives on the developer's GitHub page.
Modifier Stack Manager's hotkeys are usable only when hovering over the Modifiers tab in the Properties window, unless otherwise noted. Ctrl + Shift + A applies all modifiers, Ctrl + Shift + X removes all, Shift + E expands the selected modifier and collapses the rest, and Shift + C collapses all. Ctrl + Shift + Up or Down moves the selected modifier and repeats when held. Holding Shift while pressing the Up/Down buttons in the UI moves a modifier to the beginning or end of the stack.
Modifier Stack Manager is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. It is listed as free here in the catalog, and you can review current licensing, download the extension and read version history on the developer's GitHub page or the Blender Extensions Platform. The extension does not require special permissions. For feedback, feature requests or general discussion, the developer points users to the Blender Artists thread.
