📦 Text Remesher (v1.0.0)

Blender Version: 3.6+
Category: Object
Location: View3D > Sidebar (N-panel) > Text Remesher

Description

Text Remesher is an add-on for Blender that remeshes 3D text objects using a solidify and remesh modifier stack. This is particularly useful for preparing clean geometry for further modeling, sculpting, or 3D printing.

You can easily convert text objects to high-quality, manifold meshes with fine control over thickness, remesh depth, and scale.

🛠️ Features

• Automatically duplicates and converts text objects to mesh

• Adds a non-destructive Solidify modifier

• Applies a Remesh modifier with real-time parameter control

• Supports reverting to original text

• Finalizes and cleans geometry with one click

• Live UI controls in the 3D View Sidebar

  
  

  🧰 UI Panel Overview

  Access via View3D > Sidebar (N) > Text Remesher tab.

  Control	Function
  Thickness	Adjusts solidify thickness (percent-based)
  Depth	Octree depth of the Remesh modifier
  Scale	Scale factor for Remesh
  Start	Duplicates the text object, converts to mesh, adds modifiers
  Revert	Deletes duplicate and unhides original text
  Execute	Applies modifiers, cleans mesh, replaces original

  
  

  🔄 Workflow

  1. Select a text object.

  2. Click Start – it creates a mesh copy with modifiers applied.

  3. Adjust Thickness, Depth, and Scale live from the panel.

  4. Click Execute to apply and clean up the mesh.

  5. (Optional) Revert if you want to cancel and return to original text.

     
     

     🧪 Advanced Notes

     • Solidify and Remesh are applied non-destructively until you execute.

     • Automatically switches viewport shading to Wireframe on start.

     • Restores to Solid shading after execution.

     • If Thickness ≤ 0.1, vertices are merged by distance after remeshing.

       Installation

       1. Download the .zip file from Blender Market.

       2. In Blender, go to Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Install.

       3. Select the .zip and enable Text Remesher.

       4. Go to the Text Remesher tab in the Sidebar.

          💡 Tip

          To use this add-on as a base for remeshing other curve-based objects (not just text), you can easily modify the operator checks to include CURVE types.
