• Ctrl+Click : Copy file path
• Ctrl+Shift+Click : Copy directory path
• Alt+Click : Copy file name

Open Side Blend menu

Clicking on filename open it in your current instance (careful, no warning) Clicking on the blender file icon open the file in another instance.

Shortcut

Add a shortcut to pop up a search field to open blends from history (Ctrl+ Shift + Alt + o).

Open any addons folder (button in list or using search feature)

Blender file browser

Button to set browser where the blend is

Button to open browsed folder in operating system file browser.

Switch output path type between relative and absolute

This is called through F3 search operator, (if you have developer extras enabled in preferences > interface)

A reload option for developers

If developer mode is ticked in preference, another button appears at the top corner next to the folder icon. It triggers a full refresh of the blend (launch the file in a fully new blender instance and close the current),

Useful for super quick reload when developing addons without IDE debugger.
