Radial Studio

Team Blender in Modeling


Radial Studio

A circular pie menu for Edit Mode, with live arc sliders built in.

Radial Studio replaces menu-diving with a single radial hub. Press one shortcut, and every common modeling tool — Inset, Bevel, Extrude, Subdivide, Bridge, Merge, Smooth, Dissolve, and more — sits one click away, with its key value adjustable right there on the wheel.

Why it's different

Most pie menus are just a ring of buttons. Radial Studio adds a second layer: arc sliders wrapped around the same wheel. Drag them, scroll over them, or just watch the value update live as you hover a tool — no operator panel, no typing numbers, no leaving the 3D viewport.

Features

  • 16 tools across 2 pages — click the hub to flip between them
  • Live arc sliders for the values that matter per tool (thickness, segments, profile, distance…)
  • Mouse wheel support — scroll over a slider to nudge its value without dragging
  • Number-key quick pick (1–8) for fast, repeatable access without touching the mouse position
  • Shift+click to keep the menu open, so you can chain several tools in a row
  • Customizable accent color and menu size in the addon preferences

Page 1 — core modeling

Inset · Bevel · Extrude · Subdivide · Bridge · Merge · Smooth · Dissolve

Page 2 — cutting & cleanup

Loop Cut · Knife · Fill · Grid Fill · Flip Normals · Poke · Triangulate · Tris to Quads

How it works

  1. Enter Edit Mode on a mesh.
  2. Press Shift+. to open the wheel at your cursor.
  3. Hover a segment to see its name and live values in the center hub.
  4. Click to apply, or drag/scroll a slider first to dial in the amount.
  5. Click the center hub to switch to page 2.

The shortcut and default values are configurable from Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Radial Studio.

Requirements

  • Blender 3.0 or newer
  • Works on any mesh in Edit Mode; no extra dependencies

A note on honesty

This is an Edit Mode tool, not a sculpting brush — it speeds up polygon modeling, not organic sculpting. If your workflow is mostly Sculpt Mode, this addon won't help there.
