The Add-On provides extensive options for customizing & optimizing workflows.
An all-in-one collection of Scripts, Tools, Macros and Pie-Menus, etc.
Modular - The kit is composed of separate modules that can be enabled or disabled.
At your discretion - No preset shortcuts
Gumroad/Blender Market: Pro version (paid) - GitHub: Standard version (old, unsupported & free)The Pro version will be updated/patched continuously - Standard version will be updated eventually. Note: These links are the only recommended sources:
Please report any bugs/issues using this support form!
Note: keKit (Pro & Standard) may (or may not) work, in whole or partially, on any version of Blender (2.8+), but is only supported as stated (at the top of the page).
Delete the kekit add-on folder manually (Find HERE)
Do manually extract the new keKit folder from the downloaded zip-file there.
Restart blender
Kit Preferences
Export/Import keKit prefs in the Add-on preferences: Use the exported keKit prefs file to backup/restore/transfer your settings between Blender installs, different computers, etc.
Always export your settings before upgrading keKit, and/or Blender
General Use
keKit is found in the 3d viewport tabs (the "N-panel")
Mouse-hover over each script in the keKit panels for tool-tip pop-ups.
Right mouse button for shortcut assignment.
Note: No keKit-default shortcuts are preset - you manage your own shortcuts.
PolyBrush is now discontinued - replaced with the latest bool tool carver update (mentioned above). PB is not added to kekit deprecated. Note: The PB wiki-link will stop working once I update the wiki...
Misc
SubD pie menu modifiers issues fixed (4.2 compatibility)
No longer auto-exported every restart. Export is now a completely manual process
Allowing for custom placement of the exported prefs file - using a pop up file-browser
Not backwards compatible with older versions of keKit, and vice versa
Once you have upgraded to 3.19, make sure to export prefs in the new format!
The new default keKit prefs file name will be versioned (Version nr as a suffix)
This is cosmetic & just something to help with file management & backup. You can call the file whatever-you-want.json
Tip: After upgrading to 3.19 - Make a habit of exporting your keKit prefs before upgrading keKit, or Blender!
[kit] keKit Shortcuts UI (NEW)
The keKit Shortcuts sub-menu in Add-on prefs now has a 3-choice Mode selector:
List Assigned
Shows the currently assigned shortcuts for keKit operators (& pie menus)
Find Conflicts
Checks for 'possible' conflicts with keKit operators across categories. This is likely to generate mostly false positives. You decide.
Find Useless
Checks for invalid shortcuts that are assinged to operators that do not exists (not registered). Likely to add up over the years - with operators being removed, changing names & the user prefs always being imported. Probably safe to delete. You decide.
[kit] keKit UI (Upd)
keKit UI toggle-buttons no longer requires reload add-ons or restart to update. Some did, some didn't - Now all of them will auto-update
Added toggle-button for Object Context Menu Extras ('Show in outliner' & 'Set Active Collection') added by the Select & Align Module
[Render] Sync Material & Viewport (Upd/New)
Will now (attempt to) calculate an average color if an sRGB image is used for Color
