Operator menu location in 3dView area :
View > Visibility handler
Also reachable via the search menu (F3)
This addon copies visibility settings of objects, modifiers and modifier settings from viewport to render or vice versa.
This is useful when you are rendering and discovered that you forgot to turn off render visibility on some objects that were hidden in the viewport.
Simplified init.py as per Dalais suggestion. Verified that the addon can be installed by drag and dropping the .zip in blender
This extension does not require special permissions.
This is so close to being great! The main issue is that this needs to look at the Disable in Viewport setting more than the "Hide in Viewport" as this is a temporary option, but the Disable in Viewport is a keyable option. Would also be great if this plugin copied all the keys from the Viewport Visibility to the Render Visibility, because as it stands, when visibility is animated, this plug-in loses most of it's usefulness.
After enabling the plugin, I don't know where to look for the plugin interface, and trying to click on hide doesn't synchronize the hide rendering, and the plugin use leaves me confused
You can always use the search menu (F3) to find operators and their menu location. The operator is located in the 3dView View > Visibility handler
.
You need to run the operator in order to copy the visibility settings to render or vice versa. It is not a feature that is run at all times.
As mentioned, just with the addition of the "Enable/Disable in Viewport" button this would be great!
