Zen Sets adds new functionality to:
-
Edit Mesh Mode - it allows you to organize the mesh with visual grouping information. The mesh is only marked with metainformation and is still one contiguous surface. It is another way to control visibility state of the mesh in Blender Edit Mode
-
Object Mode - it adds new functionality for the management of collections via a Pie Menu, Viewport Tool in the 3D Viewport. It also offers visual grouping information.
One element (Vertex, Edge, Face) may be assigned to more than one group and only active group is displayed in the viewport
One element (Vertex, Edge, Face) may belong only to one group and all groups or active group can be displayed in the viewport
Geometry can be assigned to a vertex, edge or face group and each group is represented as a different color in the 3D Viewport
The example demonstrates how to combine 2 collections by using New Group and Smart Select
