Why we like it

Earns its place in the Superhive library for turning ordinary curves into architectural trim, backed by a gallery of ready-made profiles and precise alignment controls.

What is Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling?

Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling converts any Blender curve into a molding, trim, or profiled shape. Choose a cross-section from the built-in gallery, hit Apply, and the curve takes on that profile — crown molding, skirting, a door casing, a picture frame, or a handrail. It's built for archviz interiors and hard-surface work, where adding trim by hand is slow and fiddly.

The add-on ships with a visual gallery of 76 profiles, including crown moldings, baseboards, panel moldings, casings, and cornices. You can convert mesh edges, faces, or edge loops straight into curves to profile them. A 3×3 origin gamepad aligns the profile, with rotate ±90°, mirror X/Y, flip direction, offset, and live dimension and resolution fields, plus reset-to-default, shade smooth/flat, and more in one sidebar panel.

Version 2.0 adds custom profiles — save any curve as a reusable profile that joins the gallery with a thumbnail. SVG import brings in shapes drawn in Illustrator or Inkscape. The release was rebuilt for speed and reliability, with cleaner rotate/mirror, accurate thumbnails, open profiles auto-closed into solids, and tidier in-scene storage.

Who is Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling best for?

Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling is best for archviz interior work and hard-surface modeling that needs molding, trim, baseboards, casings, and similar profiled shapes.

Frequently asked questions

Does Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling work with Blender 5.2?

Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling supports Blender 3.6 LTS through 5.2. It ships as two installers to cover that range: a modern Extension for Blender 4.2 and later, and a classic add-on for versions 3.6 through 4.1. Both files are included in the download, so you install the one that matches your Blender version. On 5.2, use the Extension zip. This spread means a single download covers current releases alongside older LTS builds.

How do I install Profiler 2.0 on Blender 4.2 or later?

Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling comes with two installers, so the file you use depends on your Blender version. On Blender 4.2 and later, install the Extension zip; on 3.6 through 4.1, install the legacy add-on zip. Both are included in the download. Choose the one matching your version and add it through Blender the way you'd install any Extension or add-on. Existing customers can grab the new 2.0 files from their Superhive downloads.

What do I need to import SVG profiles into Profiler 2.0?

Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling relies on Blender's bundled SVG add-on for its Import SVG feature. To bring in profiles drawn in Illustrator or Inkscape, enable that bundled SVG add-on in Blender's Preferences first. Once it's active, you can import an SVG shape as a profile. The rest of Profiler's tools work without it, so you only need this step if you plan to use SVG-based profiles alongside the built-in gallery and your own custom ones.

Is Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling free?

Profiler 2.0 Advanced Curve Beveling is listed as free in this catalog, and it's distributed under the GPL license. For existing customers, version 2.0 arrives as a free update through the Superhive downloads page. Pricing and licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current details before you download. The GPL license governs how the add-on itself can be used and redistributed.
