Yes. With "Merge with Existing" enabled, the addon will reuse collections that already share the same name instead of creating duplicates. You can also set a parent collection name so everything is placed neatly inside an existing structure.

No. Moving objects between collections has zero effect on render output or performance. The addon is lightweight and only runs when you press a button - it does not run continuously in the background.

Yes. Enable "Only Selected" in the settings and the addon will organize only the objects you have selected in the viewport, leaving everything else untouched.

Auto Organizer supports Blender 3.0 and above, including Blender 4.x. All major features are compatible across this range.

The addon reads your object names and matches them against a built-in library of keywords. An object named "Oak_Tree_01" is automatically placed in a Foliage sub-collection, "Apartment_Block" goes to Architecture, and so on - no manual tagging required. Enable Advanced Sorting to activate this.

Not at all. The "Skip Empty Types" setting ensures collections are only created when you actually have objects of that type in your scene.

Yes. You can define your own names for every category in the panel or preferences. Color-tagging can also be toggled on or off to suit your visual style.

The addon is designed for local objects. It can see linked objects, but Blender's API restrictions may prevent moving them into new local collections unless they are made local first.

Absolutely. The built-in "Delete All" button safely moves all objects back to the Scene Collection and removes all auto-created collections, leaving your scene exactly as it was.

No. The addon only changes which collection an object belongs to. It does not touch your geometry, modifiers, materials, or any object data. It is a purely organizational tool.
