NormalCanvas Pro
The "Mini Photoshop" inside Blender Shader Editor Supports Blender 5.0🚀 How to Activate
"Edit textures instantly without exporting. Stay in the flow."
NormalCanvas Pro is a GPU-accelerated texture processing suite running directly in the Shader Editor. Transform raw images into PBR materials with zero-latency Blur, Levels, Bevel Simulation, and an integrated AI Depth Engine.
1. Powerful Image Tools
A complete image processing workflow inside the node editor:
- Selection Tools: Use Rectangle, Circle, or the new Polygon Lasso for complex shapes.
-
Clone & Heal: Simply
Ctrl+Draga selection to clone areas instantly. - Real-time Filters: Non-destructive Gaussian Blur, Levels (Histogram), and Feathering.
2. Real-time Normal Map Generation
High-precision normal map generator. Not just a simple converter:
- Bevel Simulation: Fake rounded corners on 2D textures using Bevel & Profile sliders.
- Detail Control: Fine-tune Intensity, Edge Sharpening, and Micro-details independently.
- Format Ready: One-click toggle between OpenGL (OP) and DirectX (DX).
3. AI Depth Estimation
Integrated with the Depth Anything V2 model running locally:
- Smart Tiling: Automatically handles large images with overlap blending to save VRAM.
- 3 Quality Modes: Choose from Fast, Balanced, or High quality modes.
The "One-Click AI Environment Installer" is available in the preferences.
* Expanded support for macOS & Linux is currently in Beta.
4. One-Click Mesh Preview
- Generate a subdivided plane with a Displacement Modifier.
- Automatically match the aspect ratio of your image.
5. Smart Node Workflow
- Automatically import and connect optimized node groups.
- Adjust normal strength/displacement height directly without manual wiring.
