Quad Filler — Quick Documentation (v1.0)

1. Installation

1. Download the file: Quad_Filler_V_1_0_x.zip

2. In Blender, go to:
   Edit → Preferences → Add-ons → Install…

3. Select the ZIP file and enable the add-on.

2. Optional — Set Your Shortcut

You can assign or change the shortcut in:
Edit → Preferences → Add-ons → Quad Filler
(Search for “Quad Filler” and click the key field to record a shortcut, just like Blender’s Keymap editor.)

3. How to Use

1. Enter Edit Mode

2. Switch to Edge Select Mode

3. Select two open edge chains

   Quad Filler 1.0 supports multiple edge-count combinations, including:
   5 → 3, 4 → 2, 4 → 1, 3 → 2, 3 → 1, 2 → 1, and N → N (1–49).

   

4. Press your shortcut (default: Shift + F)
   or right-click and choose Quad Filler from the context menu.

5. The add-on will automatically bridge and fill the gap with a quad-first result.

   

Notes & Limitations

• Only open edge chains are supported (closed loops are not supported).
• Some modes may produce triangles or a single n-gon depending on the edge-count combination.
• If face normals appear incorrect, use Blender’s native normal tools (Flip / Recalculate).

Done!

No extra settings, no complex steps — select, press, and fill.
