Add-on Context Pie
Context Pie

Context sensitive pie menu for a simple, fast workflow.
Add-on by BastianLS
About What's New Reviews Version History
Poly Modeling Workflow Merging Vertices Edge Bridging UV Context

Context Sensitive Pie Menu

3 hotkeys to access most functionality as fast as possible. Brings pie menus to poly modeling, curve editing, uv mapping, node editors and animation. Replaces the traditional context menu with a pie menu, enabling many more functions on the same hotkey. Pie menus gets faster to navigate with muscle memory and lets you focus on the task at hand. Operations are sensibly placed across contexts. The top option will "Merge" in Edit mode, "Join" in Object mode and "Make Segment" between selected points in Edit Curve mode.

Shortcuts

Right Mouse : Mode selection pie menu

Shift + Right Mouse: Context sensitive pie menu

Ctrl + Right Mouse: Pivots/Node Links pie menu

Made with inspiration from an ancient Mayan pie recipe and works well with the industry compatible keymap.

Absolutely incredible add-on, it's made such a massive difference when it comes to learning / using Blender. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place, but one thing that would be awesome is to have the Select Pie Menu (RMB) in edit mode expanded to include Select Edge Loops and Select Edge Rings. It currently only has Select Boundary.

Thank you! There should be all of these in Edit Mesh Mode: Boundary, Ring, Loop, Checker, Invert, Mirror, Linked, Inside. If not, are you able to create an issue and post screenshots on github?: https://github.com/bastianlstrube/ContextPie/issues

Great and useful addon. Wished there was a more complex shading pie menu. But with other pie menu addons this is a great addon to pair with them.

Thanks for the review. I'm testing a whole rework of the node editor pie menus (Shading, Compositor, Geo Nodes). It is currently available on github, link here on the page. Feedback is very welcome
