Blender Edge Groups Addon
Current Version: 1.2 (change log below)
Last Updated: May 18, 2024
Blender is an incredible piece of software, but when it comes to managing edges, it leaves a little to be desired. Other software uses features like "sets" to manage groups of edges - this add-on aims to fix that problem.
I created this addon first for myself, so I could organize my bevel, subdivision and edge marking workflow - I was simply tired of doing all of these steps manually with the built-in functions.
Features:
- Set up as many edge groups as you want for any number of objects
- Easily change bevel weights, crease values, mark sharp/seams
- Store weights in edge groups so that your workflow is non-destructive
- Add and remove edges from groups
Check out the "Video Demo" above to see a quick tutorial on how to use it for a subdivision workflow model.
Change log:
- V1.2, May 18, 2024: In version 4.0.2 and forward in Blender, the bevel weights and creases now work differently under the hood. The addon has been modified to handle both versions 3.6 and anything newer than 4.0.2 (including 4.0.2). For those curious, bevel weights and creases are now stored as "attribute" data. Nothing changes from the user interface perspective.
