Why we like it

Outliner Reorder earns its place with a narrow, clear purpose: replacing Blender's automatic Outliner sorting with a manual arrangement you control. It supports Blender 3.6 through 5.0 and ships under the GPL license.

What is Outliner Reorder?

Outliner Reorder is a Blender add-on by Azerilo for arranging objects in the Outliner by hand. Rather than accepting Blender's automatic sorting, you position objects the way you want, defining the structure yourself.

Blender's default Outliner sorts objects automatically, which can be limiting when managing large or complex scenes. Outliner Reorder lets you set the arrangement manually, keeping the Outliner clean, logical, and easy to navigate. It works with existing scenes and collections, and the add-on is described as lightweight and intuitive.

The add-on supports Blender versions 3.6 through 5.0 and is released under the GPL license. It's also available as part of the Azerilo Smart Tools package, which bundles it together with seven other add-ons at a discount. A demo video and documentation are available for a closer look.

Who is Outliner Reorder best for?

Outliner Reorder is best for blender users organizing large or complex scenes, or tidying up the Outliner for clearer navigation.

How much does Outliner Reorder cost?

Outliner Reorder is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

What Blender versions does Outliner Reorder support?

Outliner Reorder supports Blender versions 3.6 through 5.0, so it covers a wide span of releases from the 3.x line up to 5.0. If you're running a version within that range, the add-on is listed as compatible. For versions outside that range, or to confirm behaviour on a specific build, check the developer's page before installing. The add-on is released under the GPL license, and both a demo video and documentation are available if you want more detail before installing.

Does Outliner Reorder let me override Blender's automatic Outliner sorting?

Outliner Reorder replaces Blender's automatic sorting with manual arrangement, so you position objects in the Outliner the way you want rather than accepting the default order. Blender normally sorts objects automatically, which can be limiting in large or complex scenes. With this add-on you define the structure yourself, which keeps the Outliner clean, logical, and easy to navigate. It works with existing scenes and collections, so you can reorganize projects you already have. The developer describes it as lightweight and intuitive, and a demo video is available if you want to look further before installing.

Is Outliner Reorder available in a bundle?

Outliner Reorder is also included in the Azerilo Smart Tools package, which bundles it together with seven other add-ons. That bundle is offered at a discount, according to the developer. Here in the catalog, this add-on is listed as free, so for current pricing on either the standalone add-on or the bundle, the developer's page is the place to confirm. Both the individual add-on and the Smart Tools package come from Azerilo.

Is Outliner Reorder free to download?

Outliner Reorder is listed as free here in the catalog, so you can add it without a cost through this page. Licensing and any pricing on the developer's own store may differ, since the add-on is released under the GPL and is also offered as part of the Azerilo Smart Tools bundle. For the most accurate and current terms, including whether a paid option applies elsewhere, check the developer's page directly. The GPL license also affects how you're allowed to use and redistribute the add-on once you have it.
