  • April 3rd, 2025

Changelog

Added new heavily requested features providing more fine control in creating switch groups and its positioning up to the users liking. Labelled all UI elements in the On-Hover descriptions of the addon so new users can easily configure their preferences.

New Features:

  • Swap Switch Positions – Added a Left/Right toggle to rearrange switches in the header.
  • Custom Shortcut Key binds – Assign shortcut keys for faster editor switching.
  • Fully Labeled UI Elements – Improved clarity by ensuring all UI elements are properly labeled.
  • Enhanced Error Handling :
    • Editor Cycling Fixes – Prevents errors when cycling through editors.
    • Empty Switch Exception Handling – Ensures the addon doesn't break when no valid switches are available.
  • Implemented state persistence - Now the addon preferences are stored globally and independent of the blend file unlike previous versions.

With v2.0.1, the add-on has undergone a complete UI overhaul. The update introduces a multi-switch feature, making navigation even faster, and Grouped Editor Switching, allowing users to define sets of editors and switch between them like browser tabs.

New Features

  • Editor Groups: Organize editors into custom groups, allowing seamless switching between predefined sets of editors.
  • Editor Lists: Easily manage and view all editors in each group from a structured list in the Preferences panel.
  • Reorder Editors: Customize the switch sequence by moving editors up or down within a group.
  • Separator Toggle: Enable or disable a visual separator between editor switches and other header operators for better UI clarity.
