DynAssets is a Blender add-on designed to help you quickly manage multiple asset library folders right from the Asset Browser side panel. Instead of manually juggling different folders or repeatedly setting up file paths in Blender preferences, you can easily switch between different sets of asset libraries, refresh them in real-time, and keep your workspace clean.

Using DynAssets in the Asset Browser

• Open the Asset Browser
• Switch a Blender editor to Asset Browser mode (e.g., the File Browser set to “Assets”).
• On the right side, you’ll find a DynAssets panel (click the “N” key if hidden).
• Each source folder defined in Preferences is displayed as a button.
• Click a folder’s button to activate it. DynAssets scans its directory for subfolders.
  
  
  
  
• Once a source folder is active, its subfolders are listed below.
• Click a subfolder’s name to toggle it as a Blender Asset Library.
• DynAssets deselects any other active subfolder, ensuring you only load one new library at a time.
• If you add or remove subfolders on disk, click the Refresh button (circular arrow icon) to update the list.
• You can sort folders alphabetically and search the list using options below the list.
