📦 Collection Copier | 1-Click Cross-File Transfer for Blender
Stop wasting time digging through the File > Append menu! Experience true, seamless "Copy & Paste" for entire collections across different Blender projects.
🎯 The Pain Point
In Blender, the native Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V only copies selected objects. If you are dealing with complex collection hierarchies, pasting them into a new file often results in a disorganized mess. Moving a complete studio setup or a heavy product asset from one file to another usually forces you to use the tedious Append function—wasting your time and breaking your creative flow.
✨ The Solution
Collection Copier completely solves this! It adds two highly accessible buttons to your 3D Viewport sidebar (N-Panel), allowing you to transfer entire collections between different Blender windows and projects instantly, just like copying plain text.
🚀 Perfect For:
E-commerce & Product Rendering: Instantly move your high-poly product models into different studio lighting setups for main images and detail pages without rebuilding any hierarchies.
Kitbashing & Scene Assembly: Quickly grab assets, lights, or cameras from your library files and paste them directly into your active working scene.
Complex Project Management: Keep your files organized while easily migrating data between iterations.
