**Hardsurface Nexus puts your hard surface tools in one floating triangle menu, and lets you place any slider or button wherever you want on screen.**
Stop digging through menus and side panels while you model. Press Ctrl + . and the menu appears on top of your viewport. Pick a corner, pick a tab, and work.
**Pin what you use most**
Ctrl + click any slider or button and it becomes its own floating widget. Drag it anywhere on screen, set up your own layout, and it stays put when you save the file. You can also detach the whole panel and move the triangle wherever it suits you.
**What's inside (100+ tools)**
FORM
- Extrude with distance, scale, taper, iterations and twist, as one region or per face
- Inset, outset, poke and fatten
- Bevel and chamfer for edges and vertices, with a profile slider
- Fuse, collapse, dissolve, flatten, circle and relax to clean up geometry
- Move, rotate and scale along the normal or any axis
CUT
- Boolean difference, union, intersect and slice, with box, cylinder and sphere cutters
- Panel cut, plate, step cut, bolt and greeble (with seed, density and height)
- Select tools: grow, shrink, boundary, random, linked
- Bridge, fill, grid fill, duplicate, separate and delete
BUILD
- Mirror, linear array and radial array, with live count and offset sliders
- Solidify, subsurf, weighted normals, wireframe and triangulate as modifiers
- Apply transforms, set origin, join, separate loose parts, shading and display options
**How it works**
- Ctrl + . shows or hides the menu
- Drag any part of the triangle to move it
- Drag a slider, use the mouse wheel to nudge it, hold Shift for fine control
- Right-click a slider to reset it
- Ctrl + mouse wheel scales the whole menu
- LOCK freezes the positions of the menu and your pinned widgets
**Good to know**
- Works on mesh objects. Many tools need Edit Mode and tell you so if you are in the wrong mode.
- Modifier-based tools use names starting with "HSN", so they are easy to find, change or remove.
- Every action is undoable.
- Tested on Blender 5.2.
