Snap To Floor is a port of a C4D plugin, and its development plan lists support for groups of objects and snapping to any 2D plane as future goals.
Snap To Floor is a Blender port of a C4D plugin, originally brought to Blender 2.8 by Pixel Egg Studio. It keeps your object snapped to the floor while you move or rotate it, so the model stays down to the floor as you work. Snapping also applies while animating.
The add-on provides realtime feedback and supports rolling away, along with snapping during animation. A later update added the ability to snap to the 3D cursor's z position and an option to apply snapping to all meshes in the scene. The developer's plan lists working for groups of objects and snapping to any 2D plane.
Snap To Floor is distributed under the GPL license and lists Blender version support ranging from 2.8 through 4.3. Support and discussion are available via the developer's Discord, Twitter, and a Blender Artists thread. Documentation is included with the product.
Snap To Floor is best for blender users modeling or animating objects that need to stay on the floor.
Snap To Floor is completely free to download and use.
Snap To Floor lists support for a wide range of Blender versions, from 2.8 up through 4.3, including 2.81 through 2.93 and the 3.0 through 4.3 releases. It began as a port of a C4D plugin to Blender 2.8. If you are running a version within that range, the add-on is listed as compatible. For the most current version support, check the developer's page before installing.
Snap To Floor added two capabilities after its first release: the ability to snap to the 3D cursor's z position, and an option to apply snapping to all meshes in the scene. The initial release focused on keeping a single object snapped to the floor while moving, rotating, and animating, with realtime feedback and rolling-away behaviour. These later additions expand where and how the snapping is applied within your scene.
Snap To Floor is listed as free in this catalog. It is distributed under the GPL license according to its listing. Because licensing and pricing can change over time, check the developer's page for the current terms before you download. You can also reach the developer through the Discord and Twitter links, and there is a Blender Artists discussion thread available for questions about the add-on.
Snap To Floor offers support through several channels provided by Pixel Egg Studio. There is a Discord server and a Twitter account for the developer, along with a dedicated Blender Artists discussion thread where the add-on is discussed. Documentation is also included with the product. For direct questions, the developer's page provides a messaging option and a link to their website and other items they have released.
