Your Blender add-ons.
One beautiful place.
Stop searching through crowded sidebar tabs. Addon Dock brings your N-panel add-ons together in a compact, searchable floating launcher, directly inside Blender's 3D Viewport.

A CLEANER CREATIVE WORKFLOW
Less hunting. More creating.
Whether you're working with modelling, animation, materials or rendering tools, Addon Dock helps organise your growing collection of N-panel add-ons and makes them easier to access.
01 — Automatic Categories
Automatically organise detected N-panel add-ons into relevant categories. Only populated categories appear, keeping your launcher clutter-free.
02 — Quick Search
Find your installed N-panel add-ons by name without scrolling through endless tabs.
03 — One-Click N-Panel Navigation
Select an add-on and jump directly to its associated N-panel tab in Blender's sidebar, where supported.
04 — Favourites
Star your most-used add-ons and keep your favourite creative tools together for quick access.
05 — Customisable Appearance
Choose from a collection of colour themes, including Blender-inspired dark grey, light blue, soft grey and light pink.
06 — Mouse Resizing & Scrollbars
Resize the floating launcher by dragging its edges and corners. Responsive content and automatic scrollbars help accommodate larger collections.
DESIGNED FOR BLENDER
There when you need it.

A small circular button in the bottom-right of the 3D Viewport opens the sculpted launcher. Close it when you're finished and continue working in Blender.
