A focused single-purpose add-on that moves the Copy Constraints function into the Ctrl + L menu. Built for Blender 4.2 and released under the GPL license.

What is Simple "Ctrl + L" Copy Constraints?

Simple "Ctrl + L" Copy Constraints is a Blender extension that reduces the steps involved in copying constraints between objects. Rather than working through the Object tab and its Constraints options to reach Copy Constraints to Selected Objects, the add-on places the function directly inside Blender's Link/Transfer Data menu, opened with Ctrl + L.

The workflow is short: select the object that holds the constraints you want, mark the target objects, press Ctrl + L, and choose "Copy Constraints" from the menu. The constraints are transferred instantly, and constraints can be copied between multiple objects at once. There are no additional panels or extra settings to configure — the function is integrated into an existing menu.

Built for Blender version 4.2 and released under the GPL license, the add-on is aimed at artists who want a fast, direct way to copy constraints without navigating through separate interfaces. Documentation is available for reference on the developer's page.
