Shape Key Fixer is the professional solution for managing blend shapes across multiple objects in Blender. If you work with facial expressions, body morphs, or multi-object character rigs, this addon will save you hours of tedious work.
The Problem We Solve
Working with shape keys in Blender becomes a nightmare when you have:
-
Characters split across multiple objects (head, body, clothing, accessories)
-
50+ facial expression shape keys scattered everywhere
-
Corrective blend shapes that need to stay synchronized
-
Animation rigs where finding the right shape key takes forever
Without Shape Key Fixer:
Click through 30+ objects → Open Properties → Find the right shape key → Adjust → Repeat for every single key.
With Shape Key Fixer:
See EVERYTHING in one panel. Organize. Control. Done.
What You Get
Scene-Wide Shape Key Browser
See every shape key from every object in your entire scene, all in one organized panel. No more hunting through the Outliner. No more opening Properties 50 times. Everything is right there.
Smart Grouping System
Organize shape keys by function, not by object:
