FastActions

FastActions can make your life easier by providing easy to access shortcuts to operators that are usually far in some menus, as well as some operators that would usually requires several operator calls.

Simply press F6 to open the pie menu

Note that FastActions uses the F2 and Looptools addons which are provided with Blender.
However, by default they are not activated, please do it to properly use the FA operators in Edit Mode.

General:

  • Open current project folder
  • Open Global/Local/System user pref folder
  • Open User defined addon folder.

Object Mode:

  • Create collection from objects: This will create a collection named after the active object, and place the selected objects in it. Content can be linked or moved, and the collection can be created in either the active collection, the active object's collection, or the scene collection.
    There is also an option to compensate the collection instancing offset by using the active object location at the time the operator is used.

            Transform menu:

              • Align selected objects to 3d cursor/active object
              • Selected objects "look at" 3d cursor/active object
              • Apply Scale Linked (This one works for linked objects, even the ones that are not in the viewport.)

              Selections:

              By traits:

              • Save current selection to slot

              Batch relation:

              This section mainly extends the current official operators your can find in the Shift+G menu but adds the hability to have multiple selected objects as a starting point

              • Batch Parent
              • Batch Parent Recursive

              • Batch Children Recursive

              • Select/Deselect Boundary Loop
              • Select area in boundary loop
              • Select Edge Rings/Loops
              • Checker Deselect
              • Select Above / Below / Side of active vertex

              Geometry:

              • Create Domes from vertices
              • Create hole from 2 vertices
              • Unsubdivide Tubes
