Create a Custom Blender Panel with less than 50 lines of Python code

[@3dprintmudh772]

This is phenomenal! Your speech is legible and easy to understand. Explanation is on point. Concise and clear.

[@GobiPie]

amazing explanation, thank you so much ! I like your way to show how you would find the information (documentation, blender logs), it's very important for us to learn the process as well.

[@CGPython]

You're very welcome!

[@Skeindem]

This tutorial was sooo good. It was a great starting point for me and now I've created a whole bunch of automation things and buttons to make work easier. Thank you very much!

[@CGPython]

Oh! That is great to hear! 🔥 Well done!! 🙌

[@martafioravanti1004]

This guy is really saving me. Thanks a lot for the high-quality content and the clarity of your videos, bro

[@CGPython]

Happy to hear that!

Same...😊 ❤❤❤

[@TheStrokeForge]

Hey buddy. Amazing amazing work! It feels so good to have some blender python nerds (like myself) open KZbin channel! Kudos, and blissfully well done on the tutorials!

[@CGPython]

Awesome, thank you!

[@PanopticGames]

Excellent video! I'm not great with Blender's python API and this explained exactly what I needed to know.

[@CGPython]

I'm happy it helped! 😊

[@onlyeyeno]

Thank You for this great tutorial, I really appreciate the "style" and "tempo" as well as the chosen appropriatley "byte size" examples ;) Best regards

[@CGPython]

Awesome, thank you!

[@mind_of_a_darkhorse]

Thanks for showing the basics of creating an add-on! I think you should do a course on Udemy or other such platforms as do many others judging by the comments! Keep up the great work!

[@CGPython]

Thanks for the idea! ❤️ Still working on searching for and providing good value to you and others. I don't want to make something for the sake of just making money.

[@arturertel]

I enjoyed this tutorial, learned something new and hit the like button

[@CGPython]

Awesome, thank you Artur! ❤️

[@Dedlus]

Im at 4:49 and running the script just does nothing. Im incredibly confused.

[@CGPython]

Are there any errors in the system console? Can you try to run the final code from here github.com/CGArtPython/blender_plus_python/blob/main/add-ons/simple_custom_panel/simple_custom_panel.py

[@npj5578]

Thanks for this. Would love a video going over how to run custom operators on buttons.

[@CGPython]

Thanks! That will be coming soon! 😊

[@TomasHradckyComposer]

This is quite useful. Thank you.

[@CGPython]

You're welcome! 😊

[@cosmicoverlap]

Thank you for this tutorial! I was wondering if you have a tutorial that covers texturing and displacement on a plane? I've been having a hard time trying to figure out how to import a texture while applying a displacement modifier to an object with the imported texture, all from an addon window. Thx.

[@CGPython]

I still need to get such a tutorial! But that is an interesting idea. Thank you Do you have any example add-ons that you were looking at? Have you posted your code anywhere?

[@cosmicoverlap]

@@CGPython I'm currently making one with the visual scripting add-on, Serpens, in Blender. I could share the code when I finish if you'd like.

[@vincentdecc3287]

So good and clear tutorial...thank you !!!

[@CGPython]

You're very welcome!

[@ft.harshsharma]

Where can I get more advanced tutorials covering panel ui ?

[@CGPython]

What are you interested in?

[@jamesashworth3133]

Are you able to lets say create your own custom panel from 3 other addons? Example If I have 3 lighting addons and would like to pick only certain features from them into a single panel?

[@CGPython]

Great question! You can easily do that if the features are Operators. You can still do it if they are not, but that will require more work. For example, you can add two more buttons on the panel from the "Modifier Tools" add-on row = self.layout.row() row.operator("object.apply_all_modifiers", text="Apply All Modifiers") row = self.layout.row() row.operator("object.delete_all_modifiers", text="Delete All Modifiers")

[@jamesashworth3133]

@@CGPython Thank you for the reply. I'll try it out. Subcribed!

[@Cadknowledge]

make more blender addon video please

[@CGPython]

Yes, I'm planning to do so! 😊

[@Gunat737]

My Add on did not show in the Add on installation panel in the Edt > Preferences Tab. May be I didn't save it as a zipped file.

[@CGPython]

What Blender version are you using? You might need to make it into an extension. I need to make an updated video of this If you are using 4.2 you can checkout the changes done to add-on here kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6OnpWSVd9NpbZIsi=bE-eHfz3A2ZiA09V

[@GenTechArt]

thanks for your tutorial ! very useful .

[@CGPython]

Glad you liked it 😊

[@ngnash2856]

Thanks for tips @CGPython Is it possible to set panel's default width? I was trying bl_ui_units_x but it's not working -_-

[@CGPython]

good question! I don't know. 🤔 I believe the Blender developers haven't provided the option to override or set that parameter. This could be because allowing add-on devs to scale the panel's width to their preference might lead to add-ons interfering and causing inconvenience to the user. It you find a way I would love to know

[@sonu-jangir]

Fantastic... 🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤❤

[@CGPython]

Thanks 🤗❤️

[@paulblart5358]

Can you teach us how to wrap a c++ code in Blender and make a custom floating panel?

[@CGPython]

Hey, Sorry, this channel is mainly focused on Python. I would recommend watching the Blender dev channel, for example, starting with this kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYSsmIqVg5yiabc

[@paulblart5358]

@@CGPython Thanks for the link. Maybe a generic wrapper for regular python?

[@CGPython]

You can build the Blender as a python module that you can install in a generic Python install developer.blender.org/docs/handbook/building_blender/python_module/

[@egretfx]

how do i add an image to the panel?

[@CGPython]

I have a video explaining that here kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zpu8ooehrK9grck

[@veolenco]

is there a way to create multiple buttons with one operator but with different parameters? I just want to create only one operator class, but inside execute block I want to read the parameter. I mean only buttons, without props. For example, Button 1 calls a parameter that Creates one sphere, and Button 2 calls the same parameter which creates two spheres. And only parameters changes (1 or 2)

[@CGPython]

Hello, Thanks for your question! Here is an example of an operator with different params set on each button (see the mesh.add_subdiv_monkey buttons) gist.github.com/CGArtPython/f6f3c678d4ad0616f5a89891e2282f43 I took the script from this video tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpC0pJ6bip12htE

Hi Victor was trying to find a way to contact you Had an idea about a tutorial It is pretty lengthy so didn't want to actually post it here, is there any other way I tried your Twitter but there was no way to send message?

[@CGPython]

Try Twitter again 🐦 I didn't notice that the DMs are disabled by default. Eventually, I'll make a github repo with idea/suggestions box.

[@Kotlinuxoid]

Круто, спасибо, мужик! То что надо..

[@akerka3]

Спасибо. Это ОЧЕНЬ доходчиво!

[@ewomer100]

How do you turn a panel into a menu item?

[@CGPython]

Sorry, I don't fully understand what you mean by this. Are you looking for how to add tabs in menus? Or do you want to understand how UI layouts work? Do you have an example of an add-on that does what you want to do?

[@OPFFYT]

This was really disappointing how you are teaching peoples just pasting the code and continuing everytime just telling do this and that and not telling anytime why do this and explanation of code.

[@CGPython]

Sorry to hear that! Do you have a particular part of the code that you need help understanding?

[@jscc5702]

Completamente innecesario, sería mejor si pudiera generar figuras complejas.

[@CGPython]

why do you think so?
