A One-Click Channel Isolation & Filtering System for Animators

Anim Favorites lets you store filter text as clickable favorites directly in the Graph Editor and Dope Sheet header. Instead of retyping the same keywords repeatedly, just click once and keep animating.

Overview

As animations grow more complex, the Graph Editor and Dope Sheet become dense. Isolating the channels you need often means repeatedly entering filter text or manually hiding and revealing data.

Those steps are small.
But they are constant.
And they interrupt focus.

Anim Favorites reduces that repetition by allowing you to save frequently used filter text and recall it instantly from the editor header.

No panels.
No floating windows.
No workflow changes.

Just faster access to what you already use.

What It Does

• Save filter text as favorites in the Graph Editor and Dope Sheet header

• Click to apply saved filters instantly

• Store favorites per file (local) or across all Blender projects (global)

• Promote local favorites to global and vice versa

• Use modifier keys to extend, invert, or isolate channels when applying a favorite

  
  

What It Doesn’t Do

• It does not generate animation

• It does not modify rigs

• It does not replace Blender’s filtering system

It simply removes repetitive setup so you can stay focused on animating.

Designed For

• Animators working with dense channel data

• Complex or long-form animation projects

• Workflows that require frequent channel isolation
