Why we like it

Wheel Menu Manager stands out in the Superhive library for pairing a customisable radial wheel with a dedicated sculpt brush wheel and preset management.

What is Wheel Menu Manager?

Wheel Menu Manager adds a GPU-rendered radial wheel menu to Blender, letting you assign any mesh, brush, node, or light to a custom ring. It supports multi-ring layers, live viewport preview, and drag-to-reorder slots, alongside a search-based picker and N-Panel controls. Both Toggle and Hold modes are available, and presets can be saved, loaded, imported, and exported.

The add-on comes in two configurations. The core wheel menu offers eight slots per ring, multi-ring layers, live viewport preview, preset save/load and import/export, a search-based picker, N-Panel controls, Toggle & Hold mode, and cross-platform support, working in Object mode. The Pro configuration adds a sculpt brush wheel with 90+ brushes, GPU brush icons, an asset brush system, drag-and-drop slots, an in-wheel preset switcher, auto-save presets, and context menu assign.

Wheel Menu Manager is a Blender extension add-on compatible with Blender 4.3 through 5.0 and is released under the GPL license. Documentation is provided, and a demo video is available.

Frequently asked questions

What Blender versions does Wheel Menu Manager support?

Wheel Menu Manager is compatible with Blender versions 4.3 through 5.0 and is distributed as a Blender extension add-on. The sculpt brush wheel in the Pro configuration lists Blender 4.3+ support specifically. If you are running an older release, check the developer's page to confirm compatibility before installing. Because it is a supported Blender extension, it follows Blender's add-on installation and management approach within those covered versions.

Which modes and controls does Wheel Menu Manager offer?

Wheel Menu Manager includes both Toggle and Hold mode for opening the wheel, alongside N-Panel controls and a search-based picker for finding items. The core wheel menu works in Object mode with eight slots per ring and multi-ring layers, plus live viewport preview. The Pro configuration adds drag-and-drop slots, an in-wheel preset switcher, and context menu assign, giving more ways to populate and organise your custom rings.

Can I save and reuse my wheel setups in Wheel Menu Manager?

Wheel Menu Manager lets you save and load presets, and import or export them, so wheel configurations can be reused. The Pro configuration also includes auto-save presets and an in-wheel preset switcher for moving between saved layouts. This makes it possible to keep separate wheel arrangements for different tasks and carry them between projects using the import and export functions.

Is Wheel Menu Manager free?

Wheel Menu Manager is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and any coupon or configuration options can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current terms before downloading. The add-on is released under the GPL license, and documentation is provided to help you get started once installed in a supported Blender version.
