Why we like it

Earns its place in the Superhive library by keeping review comments, viewport snapshots, and status tracking connected to the Blender scene rather than scattered across separate note-taking tools.

What is Viewnotepro?

ViewNote Pro brings a feedback and review system directly into Blender. Rather than tracking comments through external notes, screenshots, chat, or spreadsheets, it lets you attach feedback to the part of a project it belongs to. Comments can be assigned to individual objects, entire collections, or stored as general project-wide notes, keeping discussions tied to the scene itself.

Each note carries an open or resolved status, so feedback stays visible until it is addressed. ViewNote Pro can capture viewport snapshots alongside comments, preserving the visual state of the scene when the feedback was created. Notes can also include reviewer names, timestamps, and reference links or attachments that connect feedback to external files, design documents, task IDs, or production notes.

Visual scene overlays display feedback in the viewport, highlighting objects and collections that have active comments. Comment locking finalizes notes, and a trash-and-restore system recovers deleted comments. ViewNote Pro runs on Blender 4.0 through 5.1 and works with Cycles and Eevee. It is released under the GPL license.

Who is Viewnotepro best for?

Viewnotepro is best for blender users organizing feedback and reviews inside a scene, working solo or reviewing with collaborators using reviewer names, timestamps, and references.

How much does Viewnotepro cost?

Viewnotepro is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

Does ViewNote Pro work with Blender 5.1?

ViewNote Pro supports Blender versions 4.0 through 5.1, so it fits both recent releases and the 5.x line. Because it works as a feedback and review layer inside Blender, comments attach to objects, collections, or the project as a whole, keeping discussions tied to the scene. For the latest compatibility details, check the developer's page before installing on a specific build.

Does ViewNote Pro support Cycles and Eevee?

ViewNote Pro lists Cycles and Eevee as the render engines it works with, covering Blender's two main renderers. Its main job is review and feedback rather than rendering, so it captures viewport snapshots that preserve the visual state of the scene at the moment a comment is made. That lets you record how the scene looked in either engine when the feedback was created, keeping the visual context attached to each note.

Is ViewNote Pro free to use?

ViewNote Pro is listed as free here. Licensing and availability can change over time, so it is worth confirming the current terms on the developer's page before you rely on it for a production or team workflow. The add-on is released under the GPL license, so review that license to understand how the code can be used, modified, and shared.

How does ViewNote Pro keep feedback connected to the scene?

ViewNote Pro attaches comments to the part of the project they belong to, whether that is an individual object, an entire collection, or a general project-wide note. Each note can carry an open or resolved status, reviewer names, timestamps, and reference links or attachments. Viewport overlays then highlight objects and collections that have active comments, so areas needing attention are easy to spot without scrolling through long lists. A trash-and-restore system recovers deleted comments, and finalized notes can be locked.
