QOL -The Complete Collection.

Do you ever find that frustrating when you just want a polycount for the objects you have selected ? While in object mode!? |
Have you ever tried to select an "obvious" loop of edges, only to see blender get stuck at the first triangulation? That's where Select Contiguous Edges picks up the slack. It performs loop selection as you'd expect it to, rather than getting stuck. qol-tools-select-contiguous-edges |
QOL RingArray: RingArray is an elegant intuitive solution for simply and rapidly creating circular arrays from any source object, light, camera etc. |
QOL GridCut: GridCut is designed to aid preparation for certain modifiers. When using many modifiers it's important to have prepared evenly divided geometry. Gridcut comes to the rescue where subdivision so often fails! |
QOL QuickBool: QuickBool is designed for rapid and easy boolean operations. It adds an option to your standard right click menu which instantly performs booleans, automating setup processes and adding addtional options. |
QOL Select Same Size. A simple elegant addition to the select menu allowing you to grab all object of a similar size (or larger/smaller) to the selected active object. |
QOL Select Same Vertex Count. An addition to the selection menu that does exactly what you'd expect. It selects all objects with the same vertex count as your current active object. |
QOL GroundObjects: If you need this, you already know what it does! It's a quality of life thing. The addon arranges objects to ground either in place, or at world zero. Either sitting or swimming. Either as a group or individually. With pivot placement or just pivots just as they were. |
Materials Panel: Gives you primarily an overview of all the materials in your scene. Apply, name, create, mass apply and generate. Cleanup, Purge materials, or even grab objects by material. There are a plethora of utilities in a simple, clean UI. |
Camera Bookmarks: An extremely user friendly camera bookmark system with hotkey and minimal UI access. |
QOL SmartSmooth: Updated for 4.1 ! Takes the guesswork out of whether "smooth shaded" is going to work as intended. Fixing a myriad of everyday problems with the regular smooth shaded function. All the while being familar (it's even placed next to the smooth shade option on the right mouse menu). |
QOL FrameFlipper: The FrameFlipper addon is an addition to the timeline bar that allows you to flip between any two keyframes you set without affecting the animation or needing keyframes |
