Cài Đặt các Trình Bổ Sung (Installing Add-ons)

There are hundreds of add-ons that are not distributed with Blender and are developed by others. To add them to the list of other add-ons, they must be installed into Blender.

To install these, use the Install... button and use the File Browser to select the .zip or .py add-on file.

Now the add-on will be installed, however not automatically enabled. The search field will be set to the add-on's name (to avoid having to look for it), Enable the add-on by checking the enable checkbox.

User-Defined Add-on Path

You can also create a personal directory containing new add-ons and configure your files path in the File Paths section of the Preferences. To create a personal script directory:

  1. Create an empty directory in a location of your choice (e.g. my_scripts).

  2. Add a subdirectory under my_scripts called addons (it must have this name for Blender to recognize it).

  3. Open the File Paths section of the Preferences.

  4. Set the Scripts file path to point to your script directory (e.g. my_scripts).

  5. Save the preferences and restart Blender for it to recognize the new add-on location.

Now when you install add-ons you can select the Target Path when installing 3rd party scripts. Blender will copy newly installed add-ons under the directory selected in your Preferences.

Add-ons that activate or change multiple hotkeys have a special system of activation. For example, with the Trình Đơn Hình Rẻ Quạt trong Cổng Nhìn 3D (3D Viewport Pie Menus) add-on for each menu there is a selection box to activate the menu and its hotkey.

If the Add-on does not activate when enabled, check the Console window for any errors that may have occurred.

Cấu Hình về Trình Bổ Sung (Add-on Preferences)

Some add-ons may have their own preferences which can be found in the Preferences section of the add-on information box.

Some add-ons use this section for example to enable/disable certain functions of the add-on. Sometimes these might even all default to off. So it is important to check if the enabled add-on has any particular preferences.
