About

I made these little entries to streamline the workflow of visibility and rendering, because when working with many objects, the render visibility sometimes is not the same as the viewport visibility. When you hit render, things are hidden or shown accidentally, ruining good renders - the final Render output is the important one. The viewport should reflect that. This is a visibility quality check UX.

Features:

Adds a Match Visibility panel to the Properties Shelf>View tab from 3D View Adds a drop down to the Filter panel to match visibility from Outliner Press a "Show Render Only" button to see final render results in the viewport (hides overlays and matches render display settings to viewport. CTRL+Z to revert. Match from view (updates viewport and render to hide settings) Match from viewport (updates render and view to viewport settings) Match from render (updates view and viewport to render settings) Updates

[Ver 1.0.5_1]

  • Adds support for matching render/viewport visibility for modifiers as well, this now happens automatically when you hit "Match from... render/viewport".

[Ver 1.0.6]

  • Fixed: removed a bug that would try to iterate all the objects in all the scenes, instead of only in the active scene as it should. Naughty boy.

[Ver 1.0.5] Updates to 1.0.5: Uploaded wrong version......Doh! Again. This is my first addon.. thanks for all the patience.

[Ver 1.0.4]

  • Fix: wasn't installing to Blender because the outliner has no view menu. Doh! Bforartists yes. I have now moved the operators in the outliner to the filter menu. The 3D View panel is still the same.

[1.0.3]

  • Added the ability to check collection viewport and render visibility.
  • Added Show Render only so that it hides overlays, widgets, and shows only render object and collections.
  • Add the ability to match from object hidden visibility
  • Improved tooltips and UI entries.
