Passpartout Slider earns its place in the blender_extensions library as a single-purpose tool: one key drives the active camera's passpartout alpha, and it has been downloaded more than fourteen thousand times since its July 2024 release.
Passpartout Slider is a Blender add-on from developer Costa that controls the active camera's passpartout alpha percentage. The whole tool is driven from the P key.
Holding P adjusts the passpartout alpha percentage, and tapping P toggles the effect off and on. The add-on requires no special permissions and is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer. It installs through Blender's standard extension process, either by dragging the file into Blender or installing it from disk, and is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.
Version 1.0.0 was published in July 2024 as the first implementation. Passpartout Slider ranks 287 in the blender_extensions library and has been downloaded more than fourteen thousand times. It holds a 5.0 rating across seven reviews, and the download itself is a compact 1.8 KB.
Passpartout Slider is best for blender artists who want to control the active camera's passpartout alpha directly from the keyboard.
Passpartout Slider is completely free to download and use.
Passpartout Slider lists compatibility with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer, so it runs on the 4.2 long-term support release and later versions. The current version is 1.0.0, published in July 2024 as the add-on's first implementation, and it requires no special permissions to install. Because compatibility can shift with future Blender releases, checking the developer's page on blender_extensions is the best way to confirm support for the exact version you run.
Passpartout Slider is driven entirely by the P key. Holding P adjusts the active camera's passpartout alpha percentage, and tapping P toggles the effect off and on. That single-key control is the whole interaction, and the add-on acts on whichever camera is currently active in your scene. Version 1.0.0 is described as the first implementation, so this key-based control is the core of what the add-on offers at this stage.
Passpartout Slider is listed here as free and is distributed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, an open-source license. It requires no special permissions to install and is a small 1.8 KB download published in July 2024. For the current licensing terms and any changes, the developer's page on blender_extensions is the place to check before you download.
Passpartout Slider follows Blender's standard extension process. You can drag and drop the file into Blender, or download it and install from disk through Blender's preferences. The add-on requires no special permissions, weighs 1.8 KB, and is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer. The current release is version 1.0.0 from July 2024, distributed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.
