Feb 14, 2019 · Opened this file in Blender. Trying to delete a bottom part with a Knife, then with a Plane, but nothing works. For example I've tried hints from here, from this tutorial When I used a Plane to c...

Jan 31, 2016 · Just wondering how to reverse smooth shading in Blender. When the mesh is smooth shaded it's considerably slower to edit due to hardware overhead. What are the combination of settings / options to undo smooth shading so I can get back to a hard / 'jaggy' polygon model for faster editing?

May 19, 2016 · I know this is an old post but, for anyone else that wanted to deselect all objects I do it like this: For Blender 2.8 onward: for obj in bpy.data.objects: obj.select_set(False) For Blender 2.79 and earlier: for obj in bpy.data.objects: obj.select = False

Dec 22, 2021 · However, in Blender I now have many 'empties' without any children below it. I'd like to select all the empties that have no children, so that I can delete them all.

The steps would be :- import file break into multiple objects for safety, get a list of mesh objects list the surface area of each object get the max from the list of areas delete the not biggest objects export the largest cleanup We don't need to use bmesh to get the surface area, the normal mesh data includes polygon.area. Using list comprehension, we can get most steps into one line each ...

May 13, 2018 · (use blender's builtin text editor and run script, or write/paste it directly into builtin python console) Or instead of removing modifier you can disable its effect via e.g. m.show_render = False.

Jun 10, 2015 · bpy.ops.object.delete() will delete selected objects, including the mesh data for it. You don't need bmesh for what you are trying to do, bmesh is only needed for editing mesh data. You can get a vertex count from the length of the vertices list in object.data VertCount = len(bpy.context.active_object.data.vertices) EdgeCount = len(bpy.context.active_object.data.edges) FaceCount = len(bpy ...

Jan 13, 2012 · I'm quite new to blender, and I'm doing some experiments with it. I've been searching for a way to make an object disappear from sight at a particular key-frame, without moving it out of the camera

Nov 30, 2016 · I don't think there is a fully -automatic way, but a few step in blender should achieve what you want. Position mesh pieces as desired. Use Mesh->Faces->Intersect (Knife) - this will cut the mesh where the pieces intersect with each other. Press A to deselect everything and with the mouse over an unwanted extreme press L to select the mesh connected to it and then X ->Vertices to delete them ...

Oct 26, 2016 · I'm currently coding an add-on for Blender (on OSX, but this shouldn't be relevant). All my python files are in the default add-on folder. This folder is loaded at Blender's startup and I can see, enable and disable it in User Preferences in Blender. Now, when I edit my add-on, I simply save the file and hit f8 in Blender to reload all the add-ons.
