插件

The Add-ons section lets you manage secondary scripts, called "Add-ons" that extends Blender's functionality. In this section you can search, install, enable and disable Add-ons.

查找插件

搜索

Blender 已经预装了一些插件，随时可以启用。但你也可以添加自己的插件，或在网上找到的任何有趣插件。

支持的级别

Blender's add-ons are split into two groups depending on who writes/supports them:

  • Official: Add-ons that are written by Blender developers.

  • Community: Add-ons that are written by people in the Blender community.

仅已启用插件

Shows only enabled add-ons for the current Category.

类别

Add-ons are divided into categories by what areas of Blender they affect.

安装插件

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.

刷新

Scans the Add-on Directory for new add-ons.

Tip

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. 在选择的位置创建一个空文件夹（如 my_scripts）。

  2. 在 my_scripts 下创建子目录 addons（必须 使用这个名称，Blender 才能识别）。

  3. 打开 偏好设置 的 文件路径 标签页。

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

  5. 保存用户设置，重启 Blender，这样就可以识别新的插件目录了。

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.

启用 & 禁用插件

To enable or disable an add-on check or uncheck the box to the right of the add-ons shown in the figure below.

启用一个插件。

启用后，插件功能应该可以立即使用了。

Note

Add-ons that activate or change multiple hotkeys have a special system of activation. For example, with the 3D 视口饼菜单（3D Viewport Pie Menus） add-on for each menu there is a selection box to activate the menu and its hotkey.

Tip

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

插件信息

您可以单击插件框左侧的箭头查看更多信息，如位置、说明和文档链接。您还可以在此处找到一个按钮，用于报告此插件的特定错误。

插件设置

某些插件可能有自己的设置，可以在插件信息框的 偏好设置 部分找到。

例如，一些插件使用此处设置来启用/禁用插件的某些功能。有时，这些甚至可能都默认为关闭。因此，检查启用的插件是否具有任何特定的设置非常重要。
