Append materials easily with Material Painter
Discover probably the best way to add materials to your objects. Paint them directly in the 3d viewport just with a mouse click. Limit painting to the specified areas, like sharp edge, material slot or seam. Generate automatic UV maps when painting.
Asset management with Asset Browser integration
Now, when you save assets with Flow, the supported types will also be accessible with the Blenders Asset Browser, just if you connect your Flow Library to it! That gives you one more option for manage your assets in the comfortable way. The categories, subcategories and previews for the Asset Browser are also created automatically, and look way better than automatic Blender preview generate!
Asset properties in the panel
Create special node groups for your objects materials, that will appear in the panel, for easier workflow. You may also easily create custom properties and connect them to almost any value in Blender, to give even more customization possibilities for your assets!
Other amazing tools for easier workflow
You can find even more amazing tools in Flow, just like the Instance Tools or brush tools. All to make the workflow with Blender even easier and more enjoyable.
Build your own Libraries
The most important function is management of your asset library. But not just one library. You may connect to the plugin as many libraries as you want, to keep your assets organized by theme, projects, asset package or in any other way you desire. What you can manage with Flow? Just check below!
Now the supported asset types, like Objects, Collections, Materials, Worlds will be also accessible with the Blenders Asset Browser!
Models
The essence of Flow. Fill your scene with dozens of objects within a few minutes. Just select the category, subcategory, object and add the asset to your scene. Select one of the available instancing modes (Local instance collection, linked instance or editable) to work with it just the way you want.
Materials
You don't need to search for your materials in old projects anymore!. Simply add any material from the library directly into your object with the help of the plugin!
Batch add Objects & Materials
With Flow, you can now spare even more time, by adding multiple assets and materials into your library at once! Read more at our blog

Brushes
Save tons of time on creating your sculpt and image painting brushes from scratch, again and again. Save your brushes in the library, and make them re-usable just anywhen you want. You can also add any textures from the library straight into your brushes
Textures & Node Groups
You don't need to use filebrowser to search for your textures. You can add your image textures with a few mouse clicks. You can even add ALL the textures from the directory just with a mouse click. Auto-connect function can also handle connecting images to your nodes

Assets creation is easier than ever!
Fill your libraries with assets really simply and directly from your scene! You do not actually need to prepare any separate Blender files to be able to use the assets, the plugin will do that automatically for you, creating even the preview image in the background! You can add the asset of any type, that is suppoerted by the plugin (described above)
Flow can automatically:
- Add all supported asset types to your library
- Render thumbnails for created assets (models and materials)
- Add your assets to the Asset Browser, including adding Categories, Subcategories and rendered previews!
- Copy 'external' textures into Flow Library

- Add ANY number of libraries. You can sort your assets within libraries just in any way you need. You do not need to mix your archviz assets with futuristic hard surface assets. Just make separate libraries and switch between them in the addon panel
- You can transfer third-party libraries assets into Flow – just to have everything in one place. It's usually quite simple, and the file structure is explained in the documentation
